Weinberg Foundation names two vice presidents: Marisa Castuera Hayase and Arin Gencer

The Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Foundation has appointed two vice presidents to advance its overall strategic vision and philanthropic mission. Both appointments are effective today.

As vice president of programs, Marisa Castuera Hayase will lead $150 million in annual grantmaking efforts that support nonprofits dedicated to fighting poverty and strengthening communities in the United States and Israel. This work focuses on improving housing stability, health, employment and educational opportunities, and the well-being of low-income older adults.

As vice president of strategy and communications, Arin Gencer will help shape and execute Weinberg’s strategic vision, goals, and priorities, in addition to leading cross-Foundation initiatives and special projects to foster collaboration and organizational effectiveness, visibility, and long-term impact.

“Marisa’s and Arin’s exceptional leadership and commitment have been instrumental in our work, and their respective contributions in grantmaking and communications have helped strengthen and amplify our efforts in the communities we serve and beyond,” said Rachel Garbow Monroe, president and CEO of the Weinberg Foundation. “We are thrilled to announce their well-deserved promotions and look forward to their leadership in these new roles, knowing the Foundation will continue to benefit from their expertise and experience.”
