The Weinberg Foundation hosted its Annual Community Gathering on September 13, 2012—a celebration of the Foundation’s mission, partnerships, and past year’s accomplishments.
This year’s event featured a spectacular new venue, Baltimore’s historic Hippodrome Theatre; a multi-media program; the informative and entertaining remarks of Bridgespan’s Tom Tierney; and approximately 700 Foundation friends including community, business, and political leaders from Maryland and neighboring states, as well as many special guests from Jewish Federations across North America. We would like to express our deepest appreciation to everyone who shared in this celebration and who supports us in our mission and projects.
During the past year, The Foundation paid more than $84 million in grants to nonprofits serving disadvantaged and vulnerable populations. In addition, the Foundation approved grants totaling just over $63 million, which will be paid in future years; a total investment of $147 million in direct services to those in need.
