Living your Legacy: Levitt Foundation

Join Elizabeth Cribbs, Senior Strategist on the Family Advisory and Philanthropy Services team, in conversation with two members of the Levitt Foundation, Liz Levitt Hirsch, Board President, and Sharon Yazowski, Founding Executive Director. The Levitt Foundation is a remarkable example of a mid-sized, private family foundation that is making a big impact in communities. Through its commitment to creative placemaking, its grantmaking and research, the Levitt Foundation partners with nonprofits across the country to activate underused public spaces to create joyous, inclusive community destinations. Liz and Sharon share practical advice on how to successfully transition the management of a family foundation between generations, how to impactfully engage the communities the foundation serves and how to strategically approach sunsetting a private foundation.
