Let’s go for round two. This about sums up all the major ones I know of. First up, the Park Foundation. Known for funding Soros own TV channel.

Notice the other funders of soros’ tv as well. Macarthur, Hewlett, and Wallace.
Here is more on Park.

Again, we see some familiar names of foundations all tied in with the left. Park, Wallace, and the Rockefellers.
Progressive Insurance funds NPR too. Think Peter Lewis - Progressive’s CEO. Known for funding all kinds of left wing stuff.

The Pew Charitable Trusts support NPR.
David Becker is/was a fellow at People for the american way. That’s who Pew tapped to run the “make voting work” initiative.
The Iraq-Afghanistan Deployment Impact Fund is a very nice sounding group that I’m not able to find much about, except I’m very suspicious of it due to one of it’s major donors, David Gelbaum. You may remember him as the mysterious ACLU donor.
