Dawn Staley Shocks the World by Rejecting Elon Musk's $10 Million Offer. [View all]

She says “Keep It and Spend It on Something That Actually Helps People!”

“I’m honored by the generosity, but I can’t accept this,” Staley told reporters. “There are far more important causes that need that kind of financial attention, and we have a responsibility to direct our resources in ways that truly make a difference for those who need it most. If Elon Musk wants to make an impact, there are millions of people out there who could benefit from a financial push in areas like healthcare, education, and housing. That’s where this money should go.”
