Funding Community Needs and Jewish Life

SERVING MONROE AND ONTARIO COUNTIES

Residents of Rochester, NY, for virtually all of their lives, Max and Marian Farash cared deeply about their religious and civic communities and greatly valued the importance of education and entrepreneurship. In 1988, they established the Max and Marian Farash Charitable Foundation, which, in accordance with their wishes, awards grants to community organizations in Monroe and Ontario Counties—half of them for Jewish projects and programs.
