| Labrea, he did this purposely since he usually does gives quietly through the Bloomberg Fdn and before that the Carnegie Fdn. This was s statement to Komen and also a challenge to others. I have lots of problems with Bloomberg but his generosity to many NYC based org's is legendary. He does put his money where his mouth is. |

| He has given city programs - that he cut - millions of dollars in the last 10 years. In particular, arts programs. |

| Indeed Elly. My former org receives between $150 - $250K from Bloomberg each year for their (arts) programs that serve under-served communities in NYC. |
