Dean Uehara announces new $20 million gift from Connie and Steve Ballmer

Today, UW School of Social Work Dean Edwina S. Uehara announced a new gift of $20 million from Connie and Steve Ballmer—$10 million of which will be used to provide much-needed scholarship support. “This new funding will more than double the amount of philanthropic support we offer to our students each year,” said Dean Uehara. “It will make a profound difference to students in need.” The Ballmers’ new gift brings the couple’s support for the School of Social Work to $32 million over the past five years.
