THE MOST IMPORTANT INFRASTRUCTURE

Each day, the real estate industry focuses on infrastructure—but we shouldn’t forget about human infrastructure and that each child is an investment for the futur e, says Carnegie Corporation of New York president Vartan Gregorian, who along with wife Clare is being honored by our friends at the Citizens’ Committee for Children of New York at the MoMA next Tuesday evening. Vartan tells us they first became involved with CCC (founded 68 years ago by Eleanor Roosevelt) when they came to NY in 1981 and Clare became an administrative assistant at the non-profit. “It became very dear to us, especially Clare,” he says.

Tickets can be purchased here or make a gift directly to CCC.
