Psikolog anak Ruth Gottesman (93) membuat keputusan terbesar dalam hidupnya. Dia secara sukarela menyumbangkan US$ 1 miliar atau Rp 15,7 triliun dari rekeningnya untuk Albert Einstein College of Medicine. Mengutip Wall Street Journal, sumbangan tersebut didasari oleh keinginan Ruth agar sekolah kedokteran terjangkau dan mudah diakses masyarakat. (AP Photo/Mary Altaffer)

Dia mengalihkan warisan Rp 15 triliun ke Albert Einstein College of Medicine. Tujuannya tentu saja agar sekolah tersebut bisa mencetak banyak dokter tanpa perlu memikirkan biaya. Nantinya, dokter-dokter baru bisa membantu memperbaiki kesehatan warga di Bronx, lokasi kampus yang mayoritas warga miskin. (Jason Torres/Albert Einstein College of Medicine via AP)
