The Windward Fund is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization managed by Arabella Advisors, a for-profit consulting company that advises left-leaning donors and nonprofits about where to give money and serves as the hub of a politically liberal "dark money" network in the United States.[1] The Windward Fund serves as the fiscal sponsor for various left-leaning political projects.[2][3] The Windward Fund had over $158 million in revenue in 2020.[4]

In October 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.[5]
