David Geffin financed a school for kids on the UCLA campus (pizzagate)

submitted ago by Shizy

This is new to me so I thought I would share:

David Geffen gave $100 million dollars to start a middle and high school for children on the UCLA campus called the Geffen Academy. It opened for the 2017/2018 school year.

He previously donated $300 million to the UCLA medical school. Geffen has some sort of strong interest in UCLA. It's not because he is an alumni, he dropped out of college. Is he just a big hearted guy? Or does finding a school, and giving enormously to the med school provide him some special perks?

Here's the schools website:

Note their motto, "Reach in, Reach Out, Reach On"! What????

Here is a good article that breaks down why such a large donation for a school that is really not even needed is a total waste:

The author provides a good rebuttal for Geffens claims for why this school is so important and basically questions why Geffen would throw so much money at something that isn't even needed.

oh.. this is totally Pizzagate related

This literally looks like a promotional ad for David Geffen being a very generous person followed by shallow speculation about supposed ulterior motives.

Can we get a flag on this @Vindicator?

Ian, what the hell are you talking about?

So Geffen hasn't been repeatedly accused of being involved in pedophilia? And you have no problem with a highly suspected pedo starting a school and having access to school kids? Wow! Way to let being butt hurt cloud your feelers!

Knowing somebody is a pedo based on other evidence not related to this post does not make the post any more relevant.

How about making a definitive connection between the school and any nefarious Geffen activities associated with it?

Otherwise, it's just empty speculation.

Geffen is associated with the school. That's nefarious enough to warrant bringing it to people's attention here on voat so they can be aware of it.
