Kwang G. Tan G’73 Donates $5 Million in Support of National Veteran Resource Center

When Kwang G. Tan G’73, Ph.D. learned about the National Veterans Resource Center at the Daniel and Gayle D’Aniello Building (NVRC), he knew he wanted to support this new innovative center of research and hub of veteran life on campus. Tan is providing a $5 million gift toward this first-of-its-kind facility dedicated to academic research, programming and thought leadership that will address the social, economic and wellness concerns of the nation’s veterans and families.

A generous benefactor of the University, Tan donated $3.5 million in support of the creation of the Barnes Center at The Arch—the University’s new state-of-the-art health, wellness and recreation complex—and provides $60,000 a year for current student scholarships. He was also inspired to give further with his donation to the NVRC after seeing the University’s continuing momentum to advance academic excellence and create dynamic new learning opportunities, including a focus on the University’s enduring commitment to veterans.
