Los Angeles Times, May 7, 2009
A former Orange County, CA, real estate developer has donated $21 million to University of California-Irvine for the school's new hospital. The posthumous donation was made by M.A. Douglas, who died last June. The hospital will now be renamed UC Irvine Douglas Hospital. UCI had reached $32 million of its $50-million fundraising goal for the new 424-bed hospital before Douglas' gift.
