Gabriel, Joseph and Lila Mandour Karam Fund
A donor-advised fund created by the late Joseph G. Karam, through the remainder of his estate, and named for the family as a lasting legacy. A committee of family members award grants to nonprofit organizations supporting the dramatic arts and technological development in accordance with Joseph's wishes.
Overview
After Joe's passing, family members and long-time friends created a donor-advised fund at the Community Foundation of Herkimer and Oneida Counties to continue his philanthropic efforts and positive vision for his community. Since 2012 the Gabriel, Joseph and Lila Mandour Karam Fund has awarded nearly $60,000 to Players of Utica, Stanley Center for the Arts, Mohawk Valley Health System, House of the Good Shepherd, the Neighborhood Center and other area nonprofits. The fund’s advisers are all members of Joe’s extended family.
