“Without Distinction of Race, Sex, or Creed”: The General Education Board, 1903-1964
The General Education Board
The General Education Board (GEB) was devoted to the cause of improving education throughout the United States.
Its efforts included a number of key initiatives focusing on public education in the South and the improvement of medical education.
The GEB was incorporated in 1903 to foster “the promotion of education within the United States of America, without distinction of race, sex, or creed.”“General Education Board: Purpose and Program,” Rockefeller Archive Center (RAC), Family Records, Rockefeller Boards, GEB, III 2 O, Box 15, Folder 145.
John D. Rockefeller, Sr., (JDR Sr.) made an initial commitment of $1 million to the organization, but his contributions quickly grew to $43 million by 1907. The total of these donations marked, at the time, the largest gift to a philanthropic organization in the history of the United States.
