Zilber Family Foundation

The Zilber Family Foundation is a private foundation dedicated to enhancing the well-being of individuals, families, and communities, with a primary emphasis on supporting community-based efforts to revitalize neighborhoods in the city of Milwaukee. The Zilber Family Foundation will use its Innovation Fund grant to support new land use and food access policy projects identified through community planning processes in Lindsay Heights and Clarke Square, the first of 10 city sites to participate in the Zilber Neighborhood Initiative. Copies of the community plans are available at www.znimilwaukee.org. In partnership with residents and community-based organizations, the foundation will fund projects that connect access to healthy foods and physical activity to environmental transformation, policy reform, and economic and workforce development.
