Family foundations are "evolving in very interesting ways locally and nationally," says Ilana Dean-Schmidt, director of corporate and foundation relations at the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia.

"Many families created these funds as tax shelters, and to approach philanthropy in a cost-effective way," Dean-Schmidt says.
...
According to Dean-Schmidt, the forum, funded solely by family foundations, brings donors, foundation trustees and others together to meet, share ideas and, in some cases, collaborate. One of the forums most recent pairings was the NESS educational initiative, which brought together two local foundations, the Isaac and Carol Auerbach Family Foundation and the Schwartz Foundation, as well as some from outside the region. Once the private funders were on board, they went to the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia for additional dollars.
"Ultimately, because the foundations were so excited, they had an impact on Federation making a financial contribution," ex-plains Dean-Schmidt, adding that traditionally it's been the other way around.
...
Dean-Schmidt adds that some foundations have placed people who are not family members as trustees of the foundation to ensure that future generations maintain the breakdown of giving. -
