  GRANTMAKING - AREAS OF INTEREST

  The Joseph and Vera Zilber Family Foundation, Inc. awards grants to
  nonprofit organizations to benefit the residents of the City of Milwaukee,
  primarily, but not exclusively, through the Zilber Neighborhood Initiative.

  Started in 2008, the Zilber Neighborhood Initiative is a $50 million
  commitment to Milwaukee neighborhoods. Over the course of a decade,
  grants will fund community plans to revitalize neighborhoods and
  support a small number of programs that benefit residents of multiple
  neighborhoods. Currently, the Foundation supports comprehensive
  development efforts in Lindsay Heights, Clarke Square and the
  Layton Boulevard West neighborhoods of Layton Park, Burnham Park
  and Silver City.

  The Zilber Family Foundation also makes a limited number of grants
  each year to eligible organizations to more generally benefit the residents
  of the City of Milwaukee. For example, in recent years the Foundation has
  awarded major grants to the Jewish Federation, Marquette University, the
  University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, and the United Way.

  Occasionally the Foundation makes modest donations to nonprofit
  organizations to honor or match the charitable contributions of employees
  of Zilber Ltd.
