The Weisfeld Family Foundation concentrates its philanthropy on a small number of sizable gifts, with a clear emphasis on urban education, Jewish communal/Israel causes, and health/medical education. Most dollars go to repeat support for a single NYC charter school and several prominent Jewish organizations, with an additional allocation to a major medical school. The foundation appears to prefer a few focused, high-impact grantees rather than many small grants.
Concentrated giving: a small number of mid-to-large unrestricted contributions, repeat multi-year support for a flagship charter school, plus targeted one-off gifts to prominent Jewish and medical institutions.
A recurring pattern stands out in Weisfeld Family Foundation Inc’s recent giving: it returns to a small set of institutions, with Earl Monroe New Renaissance Charter School receiving multiple grants including a $100,000 gift in 2023 and additional $50,000 awards in 2024 and 2025. That repetition points to a foundation that favors concentrated support over broad dispersion. The same pattern appears in its Jewish and Israel-related philanthropy, where Birthright Israel Foundation appears more than once, alongside gifts to Yeshiva University and the Greater Miami Jewish Federation. The foundation also backs medical and health-related organizations, including New York University School of Medicine, Mount Sinai Medical Center Foundation, American Federation for Aging Research, and Holtz Childrens Hospital. Across the recent grants list, the foundation’s giving reaches education, Jewish communal life, Israel engagement, and health institutions, with several recipients in New York, Florida, and Michigan. The result is a portfolio built around a few established grantees rather than a large number of one-time awards.
Urban education is one of the clearest themes in the foundation’s recent grants. Earl Monroe New Renaissance Charter School in the Bronx received $100,000 in 2023 and $50,000 in both 2024 and 2025. Jewish communal support is another thread: the foundation gave $60,000 in 2025 to Greater Miami Jewish Federation and $25,000 in 2024 to Yeshiva University. Israel engagement also appears repeatedly through Birthright Israel Foundation, which received $50,000 in 2025, $25,000 in 2024, and $18,000 in 2023. Health and medical education round out the portfolio, with New York University School of Medicine receiving $50,000 in 2024 and American Federation for Aging Research receiving multiple grants, including $25,000 in 2025 and $15,000 in 2023.
Typical grant size is modest relative to the largest awards: the 25th percentile is $1,000, the median is $5,000, and the 75th percentile is $10,000. Even so, the recent grants list includes several much larger, repeated gifts, which shows a two-tier pattern of many smaller awards and a few high-priority commitments. The foundation’s grants are charitable contributions rather than program-related investments, and it does not fund individuals. Repeat grants to the same organizations appear across multiple years, especially in education, Jewish communal work, Israel-related giving, and health. The latest 990 year on file is 2025.
