Ross Stevens Pledges $100 Million to US Olympians, Paralympians
Ross Stevens, the founder and chief executive officer of Stone Ridge Asset Management, pledged $100 million to the US Olympic & Paralympic Foundation to provide a level of financial security to Team USA athletes after they hang up their red, white and blue uniforms.
The program, dubbed the Stevens Financial Security Awards, will begin with Olympians and Paralympians representing the US at the 2026 Milan-Cortina Olympics and continue through at least the 2032 Brisbane Olympics, said the USOPF, the fundraising arm of the US Olympic & Paralympic Committee. Stevens' gift is the largest in the USOPF's history.
