To the Editor:
As a Brown alum, I was proud to see the University's rapid and generous response to the floods that have devastated the lives of so many Rhode Islanders ("U. donates $50,000 for flood relief," April 15). As President and CEO of The Rhode Island Foundation, I was delighted that Brown added $50,000 to the $100,000 each contributed by the Foundation and the United Way of Rhode Island, in order to help the Rhode Island Flood Recovery Fund reach more than $500,000. Working together, we can accomplish a great deal to help individuals and businesses affected by the flood get back on their feet. Many thanks to the University for showing the leadership that will inspire others to give to this important effort.
