The New York Times cites CGD in an article about the growing prosperity of research organizations.
From the article:
"At the same time, some of the country’s largest foundations are pouring money into research organizations. In the past five years, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, which has assets of $37.6 billion, has committed more than $24 million to the Center for Global Development, a research institution across the street from Brookings on Think Tank Row. The Gates Foundation has also given millions of dollars to Brookings, the Center for Strategic and International Studies, and the Council on Foreign Relations."
