Leon Levy Foundation

The Leon Levy Foundation, founded in 2004, is a private, not-for-profit foundation created from the Estate of Leon Levy. The Foundation has begun its work of continuing Leon Levy's philanthropic legacy by providing support for programs begun by Leon Levy and his wife, Shelby White, including the continuation of generous funding for the Leon Levy Expedition to Ashkelon since its inception in 1985.
