The Board of Trustees of the Jewish Community Foundation of Los Angeles (The Foundation) has elected Evan Schlessinger as chair. Schlessinger succeeds William R. Feiler, who completed his second consecutive two-year term as chair of The Foundation, the largest manager of charitable assets and planned-giving solutions for Los Angeles Jewish philanthropists.
“Evan Schlessinger personifies the outstanding attributes of dedicated leaders who have preceded him in this position. As a longtime Foundation donor, trustee and officer including chairing our eminent Cutting Edge Grants Committee he possesses deep institutional understanding. His active involvement in the broader Jewish and general communities speak to Evan’s commitment to service. And, his professional background brings significant value-added skill sets to The Foundation as we continue to be a source of steadfast support in these challenging times,” said President and Chief Executive Officer Marvin I. Schotland.
