    She’s a real one. That is how you do philanthropy. You don’t splat it all out at once. You won’t have money to make money and continue giving.

    Yield Giving uses “quiet research” to identify the non-profits “working to advance the opportunities of people in underserved communities,”

    The grants have “no strings attached and few reporting requirements,”

    My old bosses used to be top givers to Independence for the Blind, received tickets to the formal ball at the beach Hilton. (I strapped on a tux and went every year!) They never once showed up, never took a bow. Family was Southern Baptists who believed in Jesus’ teaching to give and STFU about it. Also believed in the bit about preachers on corners being fucking hypocrites.

    I’m an atheist, but I’m in awe of Christians who walk the walk without talking the talk. In my 5-years at that family company, no one asked me what my religion was or asked me to church. LOL, they were conservatives but one of the only times we talked politics the VP exploded with Bush Jr. hate. Can’t even imagine what they think of Trump.

    She still has some, so as much fun as it is to watch her crush him, she’s still jerking him off for cash. Hopefully she divests entirely.
