Who They Fund
About Goldberg Family Foundation 159-48576810
Goldberg Family Foundation 159-48576810 makes repeated seven-figure unrestricted gifts to a small group of humanitarian, medical, and Jewish community organizations. The largest grant in the recent record is $2,000,000 to Partners in Health, and the foundation also backed Jewish Social Service Agency with $1,500,000 in 2024. That pattern fits a broader portfolio built around flexible support for groups working in global emergency response, refugee assistance, cancer care, food security, and family services. The foundation’s recent grants include multiple awards to the same organizations across 2023 through 2025, which points to ongoing relationships rather than one-time awards. Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center received three $1,000,000 grants in the record, while International Rescue Committee, Doctors Without Borders USA, and World Central Kitchen each appear more than once. The grants are unrestricted, so recipients are receiving funds without a stated project-specific restriction in the grant record. Alongside major institutions, the foundation also supports community-based organizations such as So Others Might Eat Inc and Martha S Table.
