The Aaron Straus and Lillie Straus Foundation

Description :

Founded by Aaron and Lillie Straus in 1926, the Straus Foundation has been a small but mighty force in Baltimore. Aaron and Lillie Straus’ clearly focused philanthropic vision, to give the people of Baltimore protection, education, and opportunity, continues today in a contemporary context. With the Foundation’s long-term support of critical policies and programs, our intention and aspiration remain a reflection of their original vision: to connect families of Baltimore to avenues of hope and opportunity that tap their potential for a more secure future.
