How CodePink co-founder Medea Benjamin's family foundation became a major funder of left-wing activist groups

CodePink co-founder Medea Benjamin's family foundation became a major financial backer of a network of left-wing activist organizations over more than two decades, providing nearly $3.2 million to CodePink while also bankrolling protest groups, legal advocacy organizations and progressive nonprofits, a Fox News Digital investigation found.The foundation, Arc of Justice, is a $54.6 million private foundation formerly known as The Benjamin Fund.A review of its complete IRS filing history found it made nearly 1,500 grants totaling about $24.6 million to organizations involved in anti-war activism, progressive policy, legal advocacy and campaigns involving immigration enforcement, China, Cuba and the Israel-Hamas war.Among its largest recipients were CodePink, Global Exchange, the Center for Constitutional Rights, Grassroots International and Social Good Fund, alongside grants to dozens of other organizations involved in anti-war activism, progressive policy, legal advocacy and progressive media.Arc of Justice provided CodePink more than twice the approximately $1.33 million the group received from the funding network linked to Shanghai-based Marxist tech tycoon Neville Roy Singham.
A previous five-part Fox News Digital investigation found Singham's network directed at least $278 million into organizations that promoted pro-China messaging.LAWMAKERS THROW OUT 'TROJAN HORSE' ACTIVISTS THEY SAY ARE ENGAGED IN AMERICAN SUBVERSIONCodePink co-founder Medea Benjamin (left) and CodePink activists protest during a rally in Washington, D.C.(right).
