BERNARD OSHER FOUNDATION

The Bernard Osher Foundation was founded in 1977. Osher worked at Oppenheimer & Company before serving as a founding director of World Savings, which was the second largest savings institution in the United States when it merged with Wachovia. In addition to his namesake foundation, he makes charitable donations through the Bernard Osher Jewish Philanthropies Fund. He was named to BusinessWeek's 2008 list of the 50 Top American Givers, which recognizes the most generous U.S. philanthropists.
