If the funding originates from usurious interest, then it is not permissible to benefit from it, unless the beneficiary is among those entitled to public funds. However, if the money is a mixture of interest and other sources, then it is permissible to benefit from it, though it is disliked. Banks and institutions must fear Allah and repent from forbidden transactions.
