A nonprofit organization in Boston has rejected a federal grant to avoid President Donald Trump’s tirade against diversity, equity and inclusion efforts.
The non-profit 826 Boston, which offers free tutoring and writing programs to more than 3,000 students, turned down a $250,000 federal grant earlier this year, The Boston Globe reports. The grant was offered by Americorps, an independent agency that helps provide stipend volunteer work to nonprofits.
