Donald Trump's hand-picked Kennedy Centre board has voted to set up a new endowment in his name, even as a federal court forces that same name off the front of the building.
The board of trustees, chaired by the president and stacked with his appointees, approved what it calls the Trump Kennedy Centre Fund at a meeting on Thursday, 11 June 2026. The vote was unanimous, and it came in the middle of a frantic effort to comply with a court order stripping Trump's name from the Washington landmark.
