J.P. Morgan Presents Third Annual Robin Hood Investors Conference

November 18, 2015 (New York, NY) – Robin Hood, New York City’s largest poverty-fighting organization, held its third annual Investors Conference yesterday. Presented by J.P. Morgan and hosted by Hyatt at Grand Hyatt New York in midtown Manhattan, the event brought investment and business luminaries in finance, real estate, policy, technology, retail, energy and other sectors together to share insights into their shifting industries and the road ahead. The conference has raised $15 million since its inception, which goes to the 200+ organizations Robin Hood supports. These groups are the most effective soup kitchens, homeless shelters, schools and job-training programs in New York City.

"Our sponsors are incredibly generous and for that generosity we’re eternally grateful," said David Saltzman, executive director of Robin Hood. "We’ve been working with J.P. Morgan for more than two decades and their support makes a tremendous, continuous difference in the lives of the 1.8 million New Yorker living in poverty."

Morgan has funded truly transformative programs that give workers necessary skills, train teachers, educate children, provide critical disaster relief and so much more. Every dime Robin Hood receives goes directly to those in need."

Morgan Asset Management; John Griffin, founder and president of Blue Ridge Capital; Philippe Laffont, founder and CEO of Coatue Management, Daniel Loeb, founder and CEO of Third Point and Barry Sternlicht, chairman and CEO of Starwood Capital Group.
