Stacy Schusterman is a philanthropist and businesswoman. As Chair of Charles and Lynn Schusterman Family Philanthropies, she sets the organization’s philanthropic priorities and oversees its mission to pursue more just and inclusive societies in the United States and Israel.  

Stacy’s philanthropic vision is deeply rooted in Jewish values, including the pursuit of justice (tzedek), repairing the world (tikkun olam) and treating all people with dignity and respect (derekh eretz). When Stacy became Chair in 2018, SFP codified a commitment to equity–defined as building societies in which all people have true access to resources and opportunities to realize their full potential–as a core value. 

Stacy’s philanthropic priorities include advancing racial, gender and economic equity in the U.S. through investments in K12 Education, Criminal Justice, Gender and Reproductive Equity, Voting Rights and her hometown of Tulsa, OK. She has grown the work her parents, Charles and Lynn Schusterman, began more than 30 years ago to build a joyful and diverse Jewish community committed to inclusive Jewish values, connection to Israel and making the world a better place. Through Schusterman Family Philanthropies - Israel, she has expanded the family’s investments to support and strengthen Israel as a secure homeland for the Jewish people, a thriving democracy and an inclusive society. 

Under Stacy’s leadership, Schusterman Family Philanthropies aims to drive long-term systemic change through a wide range of philanthropic approaches, including investments in leaders, organizations and U.S. public policy. Stacy’s advocacy activities in the U.S. are focused on supporting policies, legislation and elected officials who share her commitment to advancing racial, gender and economic equity in the United States, as well as to strengthening the U.S.-Israel relationship.
