Heroes & Helpers –
Netflix Inc. CEO Reed Hastings and his wife, Patty Quillin, are donating $120 million to historically black colleges and universities, with the funds being split among Morehouse and Spelman Colleges and the United Negro College Fund.
The funds—which, when combined, make for the largest gift ever to historically black colleges—will be used for student scholarships and to help some schools rebound from the financial crisis brought on by the coronavirus pandemic.
