Boris Mizhen – Proud Of Unique Structure of Charity PACE Family Fund

Nov 8, 2026

“The PACE endowment fund is a unique financial device which helps provide peace of mind at the start of each fiscal year,” said Boris Mizhen.

New York, NY, United States, November 8, 2026 -- The Jewish Foundation of Greater New Haven found a long-time supporter in real estate developer Boris Mizhen. He particularly donated to the group’s “PACE” (Perpetual Annual Campaign Endowment) fund to solidify their future work. PACE is a restricted trust that needs a reliable source of income to continue its annual financial support. A PACE fund can be started through a handful of ways and the donor can choose the most convenient one. Most common ways to establish such a fund are through a bequest, life insurance, charitable remainder trust, outright gifts of cash or property, transfers of securities, or through other arrangements, often with tax benefits.

“The PACE endowment fund is a unique financial device which helps provide peace of mind at the start of each fiscal year,” said Boris Mizhen. “I’m pleased to be able to help the Jewish Foundation feel a little bit more secure so they don’t have to worry about economic uncertainty disrupting their work. I’m very grateful to be in a position to assist them with their efforts and I encourage everyone who has the means to donate to consider a PACE gift”.

The minimum contribution to a PACE fund is $10,000. However, in recognition that not everyone is in the economic position to make such a generous contribution, the Jewish Federation also provides an opportunity for anyone to have their name listed on the Federation’s Honor Roll through the Community PACE fund. The Community Fund contribution is a minimum of $100 which gets pooled with other individual donations to strengthen their shared potential. The annual gifts help to source activities like Jewish education, schools, camps and care for the elderly Jewish community in the New Haven area. Additionally, the Foundation welcomes people from various different backgrounds and cultures who may be seeking assistance. One innovative local program is their “Jacob Fund” which provides food in a dignified and discreet way to families suffering financial discomfort, whether from loss of employment, illness or other unforeseen events. Between $50 and $100 per week is allotted to families through special gift cards that may be used at partner supermarkets around the New Haven area.

Formerly a longtime resident of Guilford, Connecticut, Boris Mizhen now resides in New York City. He works in the real estate sector striving to improve the quality of housing for people of all economic backgrounds. Mizhen gives considerable time and energy to the Boris Mizhen Family Trust in support of a multitude of local and national charities and other non-profit organizations like Jewish Foundation of Greater New Haven. He has earned a respectful reputation by assisting residents displaced by gentrification, and his work in making neighborhood transitions easier.

Young PH chessers bare fangs in Asean tilt

SINACABAN, Misamis Occidental — As foreign rivals continue to occupy the leaderboards, the troika of  Michael Concio Jr, Paulo Bersamina and Jan Emmanuel Garcia all won their sixth round matches on Saturday morning to give life to the host country's struggle in men's section of the 7th Asean Individual Chess Championships at the AMORAP Adventure Park here. This as Woman International Master Marie Antoinette San Diego, who led the women's side after five rounds, absorbed her first setback at the hands of new pacesetter WIM Shakira Devi Herfesa of India. Grandmaster Nguyen Duck Hoa of Vietnam and International Master Erdene Baasansuren of Mongolia, meanwhile, drew their top board duel in a Queen's Pawn Game to share the men's lead with Indian IM Shrivatri Anuj  and IM Ameya Audi at 4.5 points each. Anuj defeated Filipino FIDE Master Alekhine Nouri on board 2, while Audi overpowered his compatriot IM Bala Chandra Prasad Dhulipalla on board 3. Both Concio and Bersamina up their output to 4 points after separate wins over IM Nguyen Quoc Hy of Vietnam and IM Miroslav Vlasenko of the Federation. Garcia, on the other hand, whipped FM Zhuo Ren Lim of Malaysia to improve to 3.5 points alongside Filipino IM and now US citizen Joel Banawa who crushed Mongolian FM Battulga Tenuunbold. GM Darwin Laylo, the only veteran among the Filipinos in the last Olympiad, was all set to join Concio and Bersamina at 4 points with his great advantage and winning passed pawns opposite IM Antonio Dcunha Viani of India. But tragedy struck when Laylo committed a so-called "help mate" blunder. Mathematically, the Filipinos have still a chance to turn the tables with a strong performance in the last three rounds. As San Diego (4.5 pts) slids to third spot behind women's co-leaders  WIMs Herfesa and Bordoloi Pratitee of India (5 pts), fellow Filipinas Kate Nicole Ordizo, Mhage Gerriahlou Sebastian, Woman FIDE Master Shania Mar Mendoza hiked their total to 4 points after drawing their respective matches. Mindanao hopeful Ruelle Canino of Cagayan de Oro also split the point with fellow 3 pointer WFM Mohd Arif Ainul Mardhiah of Malaysia, as well as male counterpart IM Christian Gian Carlo Arca of Zamboanga in his tussle with fellow Filipino IM Ronald Bancod for the 2.5 pointers. In the Challenger's side, Davao bet Irwin Aton surprised the formerly unbeaten Kevin Morano of Kalibu, Aklan to grab the solo lead at 5.5 points going into the last 3 rounds.
