The family of billionaire Eduardo Saverin, who co-founded Facebook with Mark Zuckerberg, made a S$20 million ($15.5 million) donation to the Singapore American School, the institution announced.
The donation is the largest gift in the school’s history, Superintendent Tom Boasberg wrote in a weekly email sent Friday, saying it would have a “transformative” effect on the institution, which serves pre-kindergarten through high school students.
