If you quote these, then why not the more completly:

"CPI reports receiving foundation support from a number of foundations, including the Sunlight Foundation, the Ethics and Excellence in Journalism Foundation, the Ford Foundation, the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, the Omidyar Network, the Open Society Foundation, and the Pew Charitable Trusts.[31] The Barbra Streisand Foundation reports that it has funded CPI." -Wikipedia

And from their website: "Recent ICIJ funders include: Adessium Foundation, Open Society Foundations, The Sigrid Rausing Trust, the Fritt Ord Foundation, the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting, The Ford Foundation, The David and Lucile Packard Foundation, Pew Charitable Trusts and Waterloo Foundation."

From the reporting:

- Fat Cat Hotel: How Democratic High-Rollers Are Rewarded with Overnight Stays at the White House.

- Windfalls of War, a report arguing that campaign contributions to George W. Bush affected the allocation of reconstruction contracts in Afghanistan and Iraq

- CPI's report, Who’s Behind the Financial Meltdown?,[45] looking at the roots of the global financial crisis

- Tobacco Underground, an ongoing project tracing the global trade in smuggled cigarettes
