The J.B. and M.K. Pritzker Family Foundation is a private foundation managed by J.B. (Jay Robert) Pritzker, Governor of Illinois since 2019, and his wife, M.K. (Mary Katherine) Pritzker. The foundation contributes to educational institutions (especially ones attended by J.B. Pritzker), local organizations near properties owned by the couple, and left-of-center organizations, including the Center for American Progress and the New America Foundation. Historical data: The Pritzker Family is one of the wealthiest families in the United States, due to the family's ownership of Hyatt Hotels and Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines. The death of Jay A. Pritzker in 1999 resulted in a multi-year family dispute that ended in an agreement in 2002 to divide his $15 billion business empire among eleven cousins. During that year, the family reorganized its philanthropic holdings, transferring millions from family foundations to charitable entities controlled by the cousins. The J.B. and M.K. Prtizker Family Foundation emerged from this reorganization.
