Foundation History
Shortly after the death in 2000 of our beloved founder, Charles Schusterman (z"l)*, our foundation issued an Inaugural Report chronicling his life and highlighting our grant-making activities. That report reflects much of our history starting with our founding in 1987 and continuing through 2001.
In honor of our 20th anniversary, we issued a new report chronicling the two decades of our foundation. Read a copy of our latest Inaugural Report "Celebrating 20 Years of Values in Action."
Read our original report "A Most Notable Life."
* The notation z"l stands for the Hebrew words, zikhrono livracha, which means "of blessed memory" and is used to show respect for the deceased.
