Annenberg Foundation Shifts its Base

In 2002, Mrs. Annenberg made an additional $100 million gift to the school and center to protect it during the economic downturn after 9/11.

The couple also endowed 24 professorships in nursing, medicine, the arts, and other areas, and multiple student scholarships.

University officials said they understood that her death might end such grand-scale giving by the Annenberg family.
