As a businessman Eli saw around corners, as a philanthropist he saw the problems in the world and tried to fix them, as a citizen he saw the possibility in our community, as a husband, father and friend he saw the potential in each of us - Gerun Riley, president @BroadFoundation
We are deeply saddened by Eli’s death, but we find some comfort in knowing that his generosity will continue to be an inspiration for all who benefit from the 50+ yrs of support for art museums, theaters, educational institutions, or medical research from @BroadFoundation
We are thrilled to support the launch of the Eric and Wendy Schmidt Center @broadinstitute with @SchmidtFutures to merge biology and machine learning to understand the programs of life and improve human health. ow.ly/tWFu50E8rrF
Tis the season for #SeasonofSTEM in Los Angeles! We partnered with 26 organizations, @LASchools , @MayorsFundLA, and @MayorOfLA to offer students courses like oceans, space exploration, and robotics to name a few. Proud to be a part of this community! ow.ly/p1ZO50CB7Hp
We could not be more proud of the work of @broadinstitute to conduct testing for more than 100 colleges and universities in the Northeast. Want to learn how they process more than 100k tests per day? ow.ly/s6Hd50CpGoQ

The horrific deaths of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor and Ahmaud Arbery are painful reminders of the systemic racism and pervasive violence Black Americans face every day as they fend off presumptions of danger and guilt. We support the protesters. Full stmt ow.ly/r4UY50zYazZ
We are reevaluating our grantmaking to help sustain, support and rebuild our community in the coming months and years as the pandemic’s devastating impacts are revealed. Recovering from this will be long and hard, and this is just the beginning: ow.ly/3qDI50zNaPX
Pardis Sebeti of @broadinstitute on genomics and Coronavirus: This epidemic not only underscores the need to increase our investment in genomics, diagnostics and IT, but also the importance of incorporating them into our routine health practices. ow.ly/vveA50yfDPh
We are proud that our founders, Eli and Edye Broad, are among the "biggest givers" from 2014 - 2018 : Forbes counted dollars that actually reached our grantees in the arts, education, and medical research. forbes.com/sites/jenniferwan…

Congrats to The Broad for making Los Angeles Times favorite 100 pop culture moments of this decade! "... and free admission all contributed to an average visitor age of just 32, which is 14 years younger than the national average for art museums"
