Dear MEL School’s
Topic Readers,
Kenneth Griffin
makes largest gift in Harvard College history
What has made or
moved this man to donate a large sum of $150 million to the college he graduated 25 years ago even though he’s as successful and wealthy as the school itself?
Griffin earned his
bachelor’s degree at Harvard University in 1989 and founded his financial firms
called Citadel the next year and has grown it to one of the most successful financial
institutions. Though he has deep pockets, the amount he contributed is huge for
a single person even for Harvard, which is given more money from its graduates than
any other educational institution. And the money given seems to be very wisely used
and invested. Of course, he’s a finance guy!
Enjoy reading and
learning how the largest donation of its history is made in Harvard history.
