Nisonger Center receives $100,000 Gertz endowment through Neuroscience Campaign

In November 2011 the Nisonger Center thanked Pamela and Marc Gertz for their generous gift of $100,000 through The Ohio State University Neuroscience Campaign. The gift is an endowment wherein we will receive the annual interest (approximately $5,000 per year). The funds will support the projects and initiatives within our Early Childhood Education and Postsecondary Programs as well as permit us to continue providing quality programs and services into the future.

Pamela and Marc Gertz serve as parent members of the Nisonger Consumer Advisory Council because their son has an autism spectrum disorder. Marc is a partner with the law firm of Goldman & Rosen, Ltd., in Akron. Both Pamela and Marc have been active in local community agencies in Northeast Ohio. Additionally, they are both members of Ohio State’s Neuroscience Campaign Committee.

Pamela and Marc are both Ohio State graduates. Pamela earned a bachelor of science in advertising. Marc earned a bachelor of science in manpower and industrial relations and received his JD from the Ohio State University College of Law.
