County Executive Aisha Braveboy directed that a $7.6 million grant be returned after a controversy over the funding.
The grant had been awarded to the Beverly Hills‑based Edward Charles Foundation, which oversees the nonprofit Community on the Frontline. Scrutiny focused on the foundation’s relationship with Council Chair Krystal Oriadha.
The decision was made on October 23, 2026, in Prince George’s County, Maryland, and the funds will be sent back to the source.
