Could we consider using the background color from the "Future" for the "Current" cells so that the higher contrast background is on the current projects?

The background color behind the "Future" column makes the text very easy for me to read.
My suggestion: use color scheme for additional categorization and search, e.g. splitting stories for target audience:
