The John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation will increase its giving over the next two years in response to what it calls a “crisis" prompted by the Trump administration's freeze on federal foreign aid and the now- suspended freeze on federal grants.
"This is a major crisis for our sector and it’s a time when those of us who can do more should do more," said John Palfrey, president of MacArthur Foundation, in an interview Wednesday with The Associated Press.
