Weinberg Foundation Announces Two-Year, $200-Million Grant Plan
July 16, 2009
The Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Foundation, one of the biggest philanthropic supporters of Jewish causes, announced yesterday that it would give out $100-million in each of the next two years and solicit its first new recipients since November 2008, the Jewish Telegraphic Agency reports.
The Baltimore foundation said it will start accepting letters of inquiry next month for shares of $21-million in new spending over the next two years, ending an eight-month moratorium on new grants. The remaining funds represent pre-existing multiyear grants.
