Trinity College Alumnus Leaves $12.3 Million To Alma Mater 68 Years After His Death
Trinity College received a $12.3 million bequest Thursday from the trust of Charles Guilford Woodward, a Hartford native who worked in the city’s insurance industry after graduating from Trinity in 1898.
“We are truly grateful for such meaningful support, which will impact members of the Trinity community for generations to come,” said Michael Casey, Trinity’s vice president for advancement.
