Ford Foundation to spend approx. $30 million on immigration issues over next 18 months

Stephanie Strom of the New York Times offers "New Leader Overhauls Ford Foundation" (link) about Luis Ubinas, replacement for Susan Berresford (link):

Mr. Ubinas went to Ford in January of last year from McKinsey & Company, a consulting firm, without previous experience in institutional philanthropy, though he had worked with several nonprofit groups... Whereas his predecessor, Susan V. Berresford, was the doyenne of the nonprofit world, Mr. Ubinas has remained a cipher, traveling the world and talking quietly to people while he figured out a plan to make his mark... Ford will commit "upwards of $30 million" to immigration over the next 18 months, a spokeswoman said. It might have committed a similar amount in the past, but the total would have been obscured by reporting of each grant made.
