Arc of Justice Gave CodePink $3.2 Million, Sent $24.6 Million to Left-Wing Groups

Summary

  • $3.2 million in grants flowed from Medea Benjamin’s family foundation, Arc of Justice, to CodePink from 2009 through 2024, making it the group’s largest activist beneficiary in Fox News Digital’s review.
  • Nearly 1,500 grants totaling about $24.6 million also went to a wider network of anti-war and progressive groups, including Global Exchange, Grassroots International, the Center for Constitutional Rights and Social Good Fund.
  • Arc of Justice’s backing exceeded the roughly $1.33 million CodePink received from the Neville Roy Singham-linked funding network previously examined by Fox, though Benjamin and CodePink deny taking direction from any foreign government.
  • California revoked the foundation’s charitable registration after years of missed filings, but Arc says new leadership has filed overdue reports, paid $1,800 in fees and penalties, and is seeking reinstatement.
  • The $54.6 million foundation has also undergone a leadership shift: Benjamin stepped down, her daughter Maya Danaher became president, and the group says future grants will focus on domestic childhood enrichment and family support.
