Friends of the USC Shoah Foundation, FY2025
Thank you to everyone who made a gift and/or pledge in fiscal year 2025 (July 1, 2024, to June 30, 2025). We are grateful for your ongoing support.
This year marked a record-breaking moment for the USC Shoah Foundation. Our success was due, in no small part, to Mickey Shapiro’s transformative leadership gift of $30 million in 2024. His support not only inspired a groundswell of giving, but helped establish and name our Los Angeles headquarters thereby ensuring that our work will continue to inspire courage and moral clarity for generations to come.
