The Aviv Foundation is a family philanthropy founded in 2016. We are committed to funding efforts that provide disadvantaged children with opportunities to improve their lives, with a particular focus on child welfare and education. The foundation also supports efforts to promote pluralistic Jewish engagement; build a peaceful and equal-opportunity society in Israel; and promote civic engagement and voting rights for all US citizens.

Our Team

The professional staff of the Aviv Foundation working on the Springboard Prize for Child Welfare includes Rena Johnson, Director of Philanthropy for Children and Families; Adam Simon, Chief Executive Officer; and Jamie Lee Kiles, Program Director. In the creation and launch of the Springboard Prize for Child Welfare, we are grateful for the instrumental support of ChildFocus.
