PHILANTHROPY NEWS DIGEST
The Roger B.A. Klorese ’77 and David L. Haney (DePauw ’88) Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender Program Fund will be used to support educational, cultural, and social programming for GLBT students; to provide education about GLBT concerns to the Dartmouth community; and to secure on a permanent, full-time basis an existing part-time administrative position to coordinate these efforts.
Roger Klorese is director of Product Marketing for VMware of Palo Alto, California, and the founder of the nonprofit QueerNet Project. David Haney is a cellist with the Redwood (California) Symphony and a member of the San Francisco Gay Men's Chorus.
The gift from Klorese and Haney is the second large gift of its kind to Dartmouth this year. In February, the college received $250,000 when the Edward Carpenter Memorial Foundation, which had been established in 1985 for the enhancement of the lives of gay students at Dartmouth, transferred its assets to the school.
"Roger B.A. Klorese '77 and David L. Haney Give $1 Million to Support Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender Program." Dartmouth University News Release 10/23/2000.
