The Wall Street Journal reports [sub req.] on the lengths to which Bill Daniels went to preserve his intent for his foundation:

On July 29, 1998, two years before he died, cable-TV pioneer Bill Daniels wrote a letter to the board of his charitable foundation. "Remember that I am a conservative and want no money going to liberal causes," read the one-paragraph letter. "The only thing I have in common with liberals is my concern for the homeless, the poor and the downtrodden." Mr. Daniels also left a seven-page articles of incorporation, laying out 11 program areas the charity was to support.

Then there's this little tidbit:

The goal is to, in effect, keep Mr. Daniels alive for later generations of foundation staff who will take over responsibility after the current board members, all of whom knew Mr. Daniels personally, have retired. Mr. Daniels was married four times but had no children of his own.

I presume conservative religious charities -- groups that promote the idea that marriage is between one man and one woman and that sex is for making babies -- can consider themselves ineligible.
