Vertex Foundation Gives $1.5 Million to BU Antiracism Center
The gift will support the center’s research and data collection to identify innovative policies that may reduce or eliminate racial disparities in the United States. To help the center enhance relationships in, and dialogue with, the community, the foundation’s donation will also support the center’s annual public symposium on a topic relating to antiracism. The nonprofit Vertex Foundation is a long-term source of charitable giving and part of the corporate giving commitment of Boston-based global biotechnology company Vertex Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
