The answer

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.
