Unilever
is threatening to halt funding to the Ben & Jerry’s Foundation, a U.S.-based nonprofit that makes
donations to social justice organizations, sources familiar with the matter
said.
Unilever
is asking Ben & Jerry’s Foundation to agree to an expedited audit of its
donations to continue the funding, which amounts to roughly $5 million annually
and is determined by a formula based on sales of the brand's ice cream, the two
sources said.
Ben
& Jerry's, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Unilever, sued its parent
company in November to stop alleged efforts to dismantle its board and end its
progressive social activism, which has included protesting the war in Gaza, supporting a movement to defund police, and attempting
to criticize President Donald Trump.
The
sources said Unilever is threatening to halt the funding in retaliation for the
lawsuit, and because one of the ice cream maker's founders has tried to buy
back the frozen dessert maker.
Unilever,
Ben & Jerry's and Ben & Jerry's Foundation did not immediately return
requests for comment.
The Ben
& Jerry’s Foundation has supported Homes for All St. Louis, an advocacy
group for renters, the Felony Murder Elimination Project, a nonprofit that
tries to reduce sentencing for inmates, and Adelante Student Voices, which
supports undocumented students.
