Two prominent financiers have donated $100-million to New York University’s Langone Medical Center, The Chronicle of Higher Education reports.
Fiona Druckenmiller, who has been a trustee at the medical center since 2006, and her husband, Stanley F. Druckenmiller, a chairman of the Harlem Children’s Zone, made the donation, the fourth $100-million gift the institution has received since April 2008.
The medical center is named after Kenneth and Elaine Langone, who donated $100-million to the institution last year and had already donated $100-million in 1999.
