My funding portfolio additionally at present features a $1,000,000 holding for an endowment fund for an arts-centered, needs-based scholarship. I’ve been making an attempt to get this out of my arms for over a 12 months, however some anti-DEI group threatened the group I used to be working with so now it’s sitting in a separate account ready for these anti-DEIers to get a brand new passion.
