In 1945, William initiated the Hearst Foundation and created the California Charities Foundation in 1948 . The Great Depression took its toll on even the wealthiest and William Randolph Hearst was no exception. His fantastically decadent lifestyle couldnt last forever, and gradually his finances began to suffer, beginning the next chapter in the saga of excesses. He came close to being bankrupt but Marion rescued him from debt, unselfishly selling her jewels and some other property to raise over a million dollars.
1945年,威廉建立赫斯特基金会。1948年创立加利福尼亚慈善基金会(在他1951年去世后不久,改为威廉?伦道夫?赫斯特基金会)。大萧条对即使是最富有的人都会带来损失,威廉?伦道夫也不例外。他那种荒诞放纵的生活方式不能再继续下去了,他的财政开始逐渐吃紧。这种放荡生活的下一篇章开始了。就在他行将破产的时候,马里恩在把他从债务中挽救出来。她无私地卖掉了她的珠宝和一些其他的地产,筹集了100多万美元。
In 1947, due to his poor health, he was forced to move permanently to Beverly Hills. Marion looked after him during this time, seldom leaving his side. When he died in 1951 at the age of 88, she was shunned by his family and forbidden to attend his funeral.
