| | member of the board of governors (of the foundation) | Explanation: http://www.sdfoundation.org/news/news-ranchandcove.shtml
One of the best ways to get to know a new community is to plunge right in with charitable giving, says Howard Goldfeder, a member of The Foundation's Board of Governors. A Rancho Santa Fe transplant from New York City, where he was the chairman and CEO of Federated Department Stores, Mr. Goldfeder and his wife established the Helen and Howard Goldfeder Fund in 1992 to help umbrella charities. But when he lost his wife to breast cancer in 1997, Mr. Goldfeder directed many donations to UCSD for breast cancer research.
La Jolla's Jerome and Miriam Katzin helped establish the Teachers Fund at The Foundation a few years ago. The fund rewards classroom teachers for innovative practices. Mr. Katzin, a retired investment banker and current member of The Foundation's Board of Governors, said the organization is expanding in function and in scope.
