Foresight Affordable Housing
HOME  |   OUR STORY   |   OUR TEAM   |   COMMUNITIES  |   SCHOLARSHIP  DONATE

 
Foresight Affordable Housing, Inc., in partnership with the Michaels Educational Foundation, has been awarding scholarships to residents of Foresight apartment communities on an annual basis since 2015.  The first scholarships were awarded in memory of Morton Baruch, the first President of Foresight.  In 2020, a second memorial scholarship was created to honor Morton Schomer, longtime Vice President of Foresight.  Foresight awards 3 Baruch and 3 Schomer scholarships each year and in 2023 awarded one scholarship in honor of Susan Reape, the late wife of our current President, Donald Reape.  In ensuing years, Foresight anticipates awarding a single scholarship in memory of Ronnie Schwam, the late wife of charter Trustee, Gerry Schwam.  The Baruch and Schomer awards are given annually, and the Reape and Schwam scholarships are to be awarded once.  Recipients are selected each year from the pool of Foresight residents selected to receive a scholarship by the Michaels Educational Foundation.  The Foresight scholarship funds are added to the amount of money awarded by the Michaels Educational Foundation.
 
  MORTON A. BARUCH
(1928 - 2014)
Founding Member

Mr. Baruch specialized in the development, financing, and management of large-scale multifamily communities for over 40 years. He participated as a lead executive in the private and public sectors and co-developed the first self-subsidized apartment development in New York City. While with the department of Housing and Urban Development, he directed the Office of Assisted Housing and became the General Deputy Assistant Secretary for Housing and the Deputy Federal Housing Commissioner. He was the recipient of the Distinguished Service Award, the department's highest honor. 

In honor of his memory and as a tribute to his many contributions, the Morton Baruch Memorial Scholarship has been established for the benefit of residents who reside at a Foresight property.
