Whitney Ball -- Remembering Her Conservative Leadership | National Review Online
by JAMES PIERESON August 18, 2015
Whitney Ball, president of Donors Trust and spirited soldier in the conservative movement, passed away Sunday at her home in Alexandria, Va., at the age of 52. The cause was complications of breast cancer, a disease she fought valiantly for the past 14 years. Her mother was with her when she died.
Whitney was the founder and president of Donors Trust, an organization she created in 1999 as a kind of community foundation for conservative donors. Over the years Whitney, with the assistance of the capable staff that she assembled, built Donors Trust into a formidable force that now distributes approximately $90 million per year to conservative causes, the largest annual pay out of any conservative organization. Over the past 16 years, Donors Trust has donated nearly $750 million to conservative and free-market organizations. As head of an organization that both raises and distributes funds, Whitney cultivated relationships with influential conservative donors and the leaders of conservative think tanks, publications, and advocacy groups. No one knew the landscape of the conservative movement better than Whitney Ball.
