Schusterman philanthropic network
The Charles and Lynn Schusterman Family Foundation is part of the Charles and Lynn Schusterman Philanthropic Network (CLSPN), a global network of philanthropic initiatives focused on igniting the passion and unleashing the power in young people to create change.
Rooted in the Jewish commitment to service, education, community and Israel, we are growing and building on a 25-year track record of activating and empowering networks of young leaders and organizations who share our vision of a more vibrant, welcoming, caring world. Ultimately, we aim to create a groundswell of people who work in partnership to plant the seeds of a better future for themselves, in the Jewish community and across the broader world.
CLSPN includes the Charles and Lynn Schusterman Family Foundation (CLSFF), Schusterman Foundation-Israel (SFI), ROI Community (ROI) and REALITY.
While each organization has its own mandate, we work collaboratively to achieve our complementary missions and global vision. CLSPN’s integrated system of global grantmaking, professional development and networking alliances embodies our founders’ innovative approach to communal change.
