New content for Honors and Philanthropy[edit]

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.

Hi. I am suggesting the following additions to the article:

In the Honors section:

In May 2023, the couple received an honorary doctorate degree from Howard University, along with Joe Biden, Keith Rowley, and Eugene Washington.^[1]
In March 2024, they were the Presidents' Award honorees at the UNCF 80th anniversary gala.^[2]

In the Philanthropy section:

In 2021, the couple gave $50 million to the University of Virginia to establish the Karsh Institute of Democracy and the university matched the donation.^[3]^[4]
