Rollins Foundation gives $15 million to Emory

The Rollins family’s ongoing generosity to Emory University continued with a recent $15 million gift from the O. Wayne Rollins Foundation of Atlanta.

The money will be used to build the second phase of the school’s new building program, Emory said.

“This gift allows Candler to provide state-of-the-art library and teaching facilities that are critical to fulfilling our mission of preparing faithful and creative leaders for the church’s ministries in the world,” said Jan Love, dean of Candler School of Theology, in a statement.
