Faculty Support
To show his gratitude to Brandeis, professor emeritus of mathematics Gerald W. Schwarz and his wife established the Ernst L. and Elaine G. Schwarz Chair in Mathematics. The $3 million gift, to be given through a bequest, is one of the largest ever from a Brandeis faculty member.
Reunion Giving
In honor of her 50th Reunion in June, Miriam "Mimi" (Osler) Hyman and her husband made a gift to establish a $50,000 charitable gift annuity. Mimi credits Brandeis for serving as the "foundation for everything I've done."
Parents Fund
The Brandeis Bench Program, a Parents Fund initiative that aims to install 50 benches around campus over the next few years, was the brainchild of Harvey Kulawitz, P ’12. His idea: The campus of a university named for Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis should rightly be adorned with benches.
Brandeis relies on the support of alumni and friends to educate the best students, maintain a world-class faculty, provide state-of-the-art classroom and laboratory facilities, and offer dynamic extracurricular programming.
Why I Give Back
For Jules Bernstein '57, supporting Brandeis meant establishing the Louis D. Brandeis Legacy Fund for Social Justice. The Legacy Fund supports Brandeis students, enhances campus life, and promotes the issues of social justice that the former U.S. Supreme Court justice championed throughout his life. Since its establishment in 2006, the Legacy Fund has sponsored a series of initiatives designed to help students, enrich the University community, and address social justice concerns on and off campus.
