William H. “Bill” Goodwin Jr. and his wife, Alice, have made a $5 million gift to Mary Baldwin University to fund the launch of a new hybrid doctor of nursing practice degree program.
The prominent Richmond philanthropic couple, who have given tens of millions of dollars to charitable causes, said in a statement that they hope their gift “will inspire others who share our passion for helping people.”
The Staunton-based university says the new nursing degree program will launch in August at the university’s Murphy Deming College of Health Sciences.
Alice Goodwin attended Mary Baldwin College in the class of 1966, the university notes. Bill Goodwin is the retired chairman and president of Riverstone Group LLC.
