'''The Dunn’s Foundation for the Advancement of Right Thinking''' is a Florida-based foundation run by futures trader [[William A. Dunn]], who maintains tight control over its grants.

It mainly funds free-market, libertarian think tanks and advocacy groups. No grants may be made without Dunn's written permission, and upon his death, control will transfer to his wife, Rebecca. It will be dissolved upon both their deaths.

==Purpose==
The foundation’s purpose, according to documents filed with the [[IRS]] is
