40 Year Anniversary ´Forty years of philanthropy, more than $70 million in grants, six educational buildings, and a major initiative to spread entrepreneurship across liberal arts campuses---these results are easy to understand. Beyond the obvious, we hope The Burton D. Morgan Foundation has influenced and inspired entrepreneurs, freely shared information, provided technical assistance to organizations, leveraged funding dollars, and paved the way for others to celebrate and foster the free enterprise system. We hope Burt would be proud of these achievements and be pleased with our strategic direction for the future . . . This project began in 2005 to capture the rich history of the first forty years . . . We hope you enjoy these recollections about Burt and his generosity. While we respect and honor the past, we look to the future and the next four decades to carry on and develop our founder’s vision.´Excerpt from Prologue of Forty Years of Philanthropy by Deborah D. Hoover, President
