The Rosenberg Fund for Children (RFC) is a public foundation started in 1990 by Robert Meeropol and named in honor of his parents Ethel and Julius Rosenberg, the only two United States civilians executed for conspiracy to commit espionage during the Cold War. Orphaned at age 6, Robert was adopted by Anne and Abel Meeropol. At a fundraiser on the 50th anniversary of his parents' execution, Robert described the fund, which he runs, as his "constructive revenge." 〔(USA Today 2003-06-17. )〕 The fund "makes grants to aid children in the U.S. whose parents are targeted, progressive activists" and to "assist youth who themselves have been targeted as a result of their progressive activities."〔(Home page ), Rosenberg Fund for Children, accessed online 2009-10-05.〕 They do not pay for legal expenses.〔(FAQs ), Rosenberg Fund for Children, accessed online 2009-10-05.〕 , the organization has given over $4.5 million in grants to nearly 500 children since 1990.〔(Fact Sheet ), Rosenberg Fund for Children, accessed online 2009-10-05.〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rosenberg Fund for Children」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
