The Open Society Foundations, founded by George Soros, are the world’s largest private funder of independent groups working for justice, democratic governance, and human rights. They approach this mission through the “illuminating principles of justice, equity, and expression—defining characteristics of any truly open society.”

George Soros, the founder of the Open Society Foundations, began his philanthropic work in 1979, funding scholarships for Black African university students in South Africa and for East European dissidents to study in the West. Today, his Foundations fund groups and projects in more than 120 countries.

George Soros also commented on President Joe Biden’s new initiative to combat anti-Semitism saying, “Rising antisemitism has deadly consequences and is now being weaponized to stifle debate. The White House’s first-of-its-kind National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism is a strong step in combatting this hatred.

In May, President Joe Biden revealed the White House’s new project to combat anti-Semitism, marking the first time in history that a U.S. President initiated such a project. The new plan has more than 100 steps the Biden Administration says it will take to combat the recent rise in the incidents of antisemitism in America. The White House said it formulated the plan in consultation with more than 1,000 people from the Jewish community.
