LEON LEVY FOUNDATION

The Leon Levy Foundation was established in 2004 from the estate of investor Leon Levy, who co-founded the mutual fund management firm Oppenheimer & Co. Inc. in 1959. The Foundation continues his philanthropic legacy by providing ongoing support for the philanthropic programs he started with his wife, Shelby White. For her charitable donations, Shelby White was named to BusinessWeek's 2008 list of the 50 Top American Givers, which recognizes the most generous U.S. philanthropists.
