Introduction
The Harold Grinspoon Charitable Foundation was established in 1986 by Harold Grinspoon, founder of Aspen Square Management, a real estate company, based in West Springfield, Massachusetts. HGCF seeks to provide philanthropic support primarily, although not exclusively, in Western Massachusetts, where Harold Grinspoon and his wife, Diane Troderman, make their home.
Inspired by his own experience and spurred to action by the economic needs of his community, Harold Grinspoon has in recent years been involved in philanthropic initiatives in the following areas:
- Rewarding excellence in teaching
- Encouraging young people to reach their academic and leadership potential
- Encouraging entrepreneurship among young people
- Promoting literacy and early childhood education
Harold Grinspoon and Diane Troderman are deeply committed to charitable giving in the Jewish world, and, in 1993, created a separate foundation - The Harold Grinspoon Foundation - to support this work. |
