Professor Craig Neumann's research on psychopathy has recently been selected for funding by the William H. Donner Foundation. His research project titled, Psychopathy Across the Globe, involves one of the largest and far reaching studies on psychopathy to date, based on several world-wide mega-samples. The significance and prestige of this support is highlighted by the fact that the The Donner Foundation does not accept unsolicited proposals. Only applications invited by the Foundation are considered for support. A key philanthropic principle of the Foundation involves judicious use of incentive grants to advance thoughtful, creative projects.

The Donner Foundation established the International Cancer Research Foundation in 1932, and in 1961, the Foundation was incorporated with the endowment originally established by Mr. Donner for the International Cancer Research Foundation. In 1950, Mr. Donner established the Donner Canadian Foundation, which today is one of the largest national foundations in Canada.
