JTS Receives Generous Gift Establishing The Fleischman Fellowship

November 10, 2026

JTS is pleased to announce a gift of $1 million from The Myra Lee and Albert (z”l) Fleischman Foundation of New York. Myra Lee and Albert are the parents of JTS alumna Rabbi Vicki Lieberman. This significant contribution will establish The Fleischman Fellowship, providing significant financial support to exceptional students in the JTS Rabbinical School. 

The Fleischman Fellowship will provide three Rabbinical School students per year with full tuition support plus a generous living stipend, helping to alleviate financial burden and enabling students to focus more fully on their learning and career development.

We are extremely grateful for the transformative generosity of The Fleischman Foundation.
