"Although the National Prayer Breakfast bills itself as nonpartisan and ecumenical, its sole benefactor is anything but: Franklin Graham.
The son of breakfast co-founder Billy Graham, Franklin Graham is openly anti-LGBTQ, anti-Islamic, and partisan. He is also, a source close to The Family says, the only source of revenue for the NPB aside from ticket sales.
Graham single-handedly enabled The Family to keep its breakfast operations intact this year. Because the 2021 breakfast was remote due to COVID, The Family had zero revenues from guest registration fees.
Although the source estimated the total at only $100,000 a year, they said that’s “serious money” for a nonprofit endeavor such as the NPB. Graham, the source said, “is providing an amount of support that, arguably without it, the breakfast has trouble making it work.”*
