It is an honor for us to be able to contribute to Jewish charitable institutions. Our parents were immigrants from Eastern Europe who lived long enough to see the next generation fulfill the American dream. They felt that Jewish institutions played a role in that success and giving back to help others was an important family obligation.

We have been fortunate to work in health, education and cultural institutions. We feel privileged to be able to continue our family’s traditions of community support and know that our four sons and their families will continue to do the same. Community support of Jewish institutions will become increasingly important as our society seems to be forgetting the concepts of Tikkun Olam, perfecting the world through good deeds, social action and the pursuit of justice. We hope we play a small part in maintaining the kind of nurturing environment which was so important to our development.
