Morgan Stanley Foundation Makes Charitable Donation to Horizon Foundation

Friday, September 16, 2011

The Morgan Stanley Foundation has made a charitable gift of $5,000 to The Horizon Foundation. The grant further leverages the ongoing volunteer activities of Morgan Stanley Smith Barney employees in the Baltimore office.

The Horizon Foundation was chosen after Robert I. Jeffrey, a financial advisor with the firm in Baltimore and a Trustee at the Horizon Foundation, received a community service award from the firm.

The Northeast region and the mid-Atlantic division are matching the Foundation's grant to bring the total gift to $10,000.

"Morgan Stanley Smith Barney employees continuously demonstrate their commitment to strengthening and supporting our communities. This gift from the Foundation offers us an additional opportunity to make a difference in the communities and neighborhoods in which we live and work. It's a great pleasure that on a local level we are able to donate to The Horizon Foundation," said Scott Boylan, the Complex/Branch Manager. "We strongly encourage volunteerism in the office and Bob's actions are a great example of what we all should strive to do for our community."

The Morgan Stanley Foundation has been supporting the communities in which Morgan Stanley employees live and work for nearly 50 years. Through its Global Alliance for Children’s Health, the Foundation invests in innovations in pediatric care, so that more children can get the healthy start they need for consistent and meaningful achievement in life. The Foundation also strongly encourages and supports employees’ community involvement through its Volunteer Incentive Grant.

The mission of The Horizon Foundation is to improve the health and wellness of people living and working in Howard County. This is accomplished by implementing innovative programs focusing on intervention, prevention, health education and maintenance, conducting planning initiatives, participating in public policy activism, grantmaking and strategic partnerships with others.
