The Starr Foundation is giving Harvard $5 million to support the Colleges new initiative to attract students from families with low and moderate income. The gift, made possible by the efforts of Starr Foundation Chairman Maurice R. Greenberg, will provide scholarships to college students and support the recruiting and outreach efforts designed to eliminate economic barriers to attending Harvard. The Starr Foundation has been supporting scholarships at Harvard since 1999 through the C.V. Starr Scholarship Fund.
