MIT EECS’ Post

Congratulations to 2024 Horatio Alger Award recipient and MITES alumnus Dale LeFebvre! The award recognizes the achievements of outstanding leaders whose perseverance in the face of adversity personifies the American Dream.    “Dale LeFebvre recognizes the importance of investing in all zip codes for youth to have access to STEM fields because talent is everywhere, but opportunities are not,” said MITES Executive Director Eboney Hearn. “The entire MITES family congratulates Dale on his induction into the Horatio Alger Association of Distinguished Americans, and we hold him up as an example to all of our scholars of how far their talents can take them.”   Dale participated in MITES in 1988 before earning a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering from MIT. MITES brings together middle and high school students from underrepresented backgrounds to experience STEM through hands-on, collaborative projects alongside a diverse group of STEM professionals, scientists, college students and faculty.   He found success at a number of Wall Street and private equity firms before founding his own privately owned equity investment firm, 3.5.7.11, in 2006, where he currently serves as the executive chairman.   The Horatio Alger Association of Distinguished Americans will induct Mr. LeFebvre and the other ten honorees into the association during an April ceremony in Washington, D.C.
