23-year-old donates US$1-million to support University of Waterloo student entrepreneurs
Former VeloCity resident from the Winter of 2009 term has donated $1 million (yes million) to the University of Waterloo that will be used to expand support for student entrepreneurs at the University of Waterloo. It is extremely exciting that in just under 23 months from moving out of VeloCity, Ted (who happens to be 23 years old) is willing to do such a generous thing for students at Waterloo.
