The Windward Fund is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that is part of a Democratic "dark money" funding network administered by Arabella Advisors.[2][3] The Windward Fund serves as the fiscal sponsor for various left-leaning political projects.[4][5] The Windward Fund had over $158 million in revenue in 2020.[6]
In 2023, after a Washington Examiner investigation revealed that the New Venture Fund and the Windward Fund had given $473,000 between 2020 and 2021 to the Alliance for Global Justice, a group with Palestinian terrorism ties, the New Venture Fund and Windward Fund announced they would discontinue funding of the group.[7]
