The Leonard and Jerry Greenbaum Family Foundation Inc
The Leonard and Jerry Greenbaum Family Foundation Inc is an Atlanta, Georgia public charity that supported charitable, educational, and religious purposes by carrying out or supporting the purposes of the Jewish Federation of Greater Atlanta. Its 2025 IRS filing is marked as the organization’s final return: it says program functions had ceased before the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, and that the foundation was preparing for dissolution. The foundation therefore appears to have wound down and stopped grantmaking.
