Kellogg Foundation Gave Big to Soros Organization, Tides Foundation
Breitbart ^ | 12/02/16 | Lee Stranahan

Posted on 12/02/2016 10:56:17 AM PST by bobk333

The institutional left’s funding behemoth W.K. Kellogg Foundation has partnered with and given major donations to George Soros’s Open Society Institute and the Tides Center as part of its massive push to promote a far-left agenda.

The W.K. Kellogg Foundation is the nonprofit arm of cereal and sweets giant Kellogg’s, based in Battle Creek, Michigan. The Kellogg Company is chiefly known for its breakfast brands, including Special K™ cereal, Eggo® waffles, and Pop-Tarts®; but its namesake nonprofit W.K. Kellogg Foundation is one of the largest institutional funders in the world and is the seventh largest philanthropic foundation in the United States.

Wally World has pretty good line of generic cereal that covers most of the popular kinds.

Decades ago - maybe in the 70s - the left attacked Kellogg and other cereal companies because they fed children sugar and killed them (the children). The left wanted federal legislation to, basically, shut them down.

Then, Kellogg began channeling millions to lefties.

When is the last time you remember the left wanting to shut down Kellogg?

And that's the way it works, until someone shifts the equilibrium to the right.

Public companies should not be funding leftist politics, or politics at all for that matter.

Hillary spent $1.3 billion on her campaign, George Soros spent a lot, all the senate, house, gubenatorial democratic candidates spent a lot

There is a tremendous amount of money pouring in to the Left from these companies.

We have to start exposing them and pressuring them to stop.

I say we start with Kelloggs as an example and then figure out how to stop the rest of them after that.

They are absolutely right. Breitbart does not share their values.

Their values are to brainwash our children in Godless left wing philosophy, while at the same time shortening their lives by poisoning them with sugary and preservative laden cereals and causing diabetes and heart disease in those children who managed to have avoided the abortion mills they support with their blood money.

Kellogg’s is a despicable company.

I think some time in early 2017, Kellogg’s will see the error of their ways and stop these shenanigans. All they need to do is look at what happened to Target Corporation in 2016 with their ill-advised policy on restrooms in their stores.

I can think of no reason to buy anything from Kellogg’s.

Rev 20: “1 Then I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. The earth and the heavens fled from his presence, and there was no place for them. 12 And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books. 13 The sea gave up the dead that were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them, and each person was judged according to what they had done. 14 Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. The lake of fire is the second death. 15 Anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire.”

I’m with you on this. People would say Ford doesn’t fund these things directly, it is the Ford Foundation which is ostensibly “separate”.

Except that, you know how if you give to a charity through work, some workplaces will match? Well, Ford doesn’t match, it triples the contribution.

Probably the same for Microsoft and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

I am sure that Kellog will say “WE aren’t contributing, it is a foundation that had been started by our founder” but I will bet THEY have the same thing going on, which means THEY would be giving money to those things as well.
