In January 2007, Lisa Goldberg died suddenly of a brain aneurysm. Lisa was the celebrated president of the Charles H. Revson Foundation, and beloved wife of John Sexton, the president of New York University. She was a dynamic force in the world of philanthropy, and she cared deeply and worked passionately for Jewish issues and organizations. She left a legacy of the visionary and critical role philanthropy can play in both bringing promising ideas to fruition and increasing their impact. She also embodied a deep commitment to public service and to the Jewish community.
Her legacy is honored in two fellowships established in her name at The Robert F. Wagner Graduate School of Public Service: The Lisa Goldberg Fellowship in Jewish Leadership and The Lisa Goldberg Fellowship in Philanthropy and Public Service.
Each fellowship provides up to 100% tuition reimbursement, as well as access to a network of leaders across sectors that has committed to mentoring and working with the Goldberg Fellows to honor Lisa's memory. Additional information about the fellowships is below.
In addition to these general qualities, each of the fellowships has specific additional requirements.
"Our goal is to be where others aren't, where we can bring our unique expertise and our passion to bear, where we can find partners to join us and leverage our own investment. Our hope, always, is that what we do will matter, will make a difference." - Lisa Goldberg
