The Assistance Fund reaches a milestone — surpassing $1 million in cumulative giving — and a new generation joins its leadership.

The $1 million milestone reached in 1949 reflected both the fund’s growth following Aaron’s bequest and the family’s sustained commitment to charitable giving across more than a decade. That same year, Aaron Norman’s grandchildren were elected as members of the fund, marking the first time third generation family members (G3) had taken on a leadership role.
