President, Harold Grinspoon Foundation

Since June 2014, Winnie Sandler Grinspoon has served as president of the Harold Grinspoon Foundation. Founded in 1991, the foundation has invested more than $200 million dollars in Jewish causes, in keeping with its mission to enhance Jewish life and strengthen the Jewish community.

Prior to her work in philanthropy, Winnie practiced law, first in New York (Stroock & Stroock & Lavan) and Boston (Kirkpatrick & Lockhart, now K&L Gates), and more recently in her own law practice. Winnie holds a BS from Cornell University and a JD from Fordham University.
