“My two years at Booth were some of the most impactful and fun of my life, so I like being able to pay it forward (one of my favorite parts of Booth culture) to enable future generations of Boothies to have a similar experience. The five-year pledge is a great way to maximize impact.” —Mike Larrenaga, MBA ’15
