Haiti Crisis Response
Global Emergency Response Fund
The University of Rochester has established its Global Emergency Response Fund, made possible through its Board of Trustees chair, Rich Handler ’83, and his company, the Jefferies Group. The Jefferies Group recently raised $6M for 45 charities to help Afghan refugees, military heroes, and victims of the Haiti disaster, and this generosity extended to the University. All new gifts made to this fund will be matched in a dollar-for-dollar Jefferies Challenge, up to $150,000.
