Teddie Lewis Pincus

My family has been involved in philanthropy since we arrived in San Diego in 1944. My mother was one of those responsible for founding the Hebrew Home.

My former husband was one of those who set up the original Community Foundation of UJF. And Sivia Mann and I helped to get the San Diego Community Foundation started.

I also chaired a group under the auspices of the Foundation called “Women and Money,” which taught women how to handle financial matters. It was most successful.

We are delighted with how far we have come and hope our children and the entire Jewish community will continue the good work, both for the Jewish community and the San Diego community at large.
