Quicken Loans founder Dan Gilbert and his wife, Jennifer, announced a $375 million donation toward a physical medicine and rehabilitation facility as part of Henry Ford Health’s campus expansion, in honor of their late son.
The funds would bring a 72-bed physical medicine and rehabilitation facility to Detroit to honor Nick Gilbert, who died this year after suffering with neurofibromatosis, a genetic disorder that causes tumors to grow on nerve pathways anywhere in the body. Gilbert also announced the Nick Gilbert Neurofibromatosis Research Institute in partnership with Henry Ford Health + Michigan State University Health Sciences.
Other partners include Chicago-based Shirley Ryan AbilityLab and Henry Ford Health, the Detroit Free Press reports. Read more.
