Charities Supported by William Harnisch

William Harnisch, an experienced hedge fund manager, founded Peconic Partners in 2000 and currently functions as the firm’s chief investment strategist. Outside his professional career, William Harnisch is a philanthropist who contributes to multiple nonprofit organizations.

One group that Mr. Harnisch assists is the Baruch College Fund (BCF), where he began sitting as a board member earning his B.B.A. from there. Created by Bernard M. Baruch, the group supports and improves academic programs in multiple ways, like attracting the best faculty and staff available and adding hands-on learning programs to preexisting curricula. It also enables more research opportunities for students to collaborate with their professors.

To support other causes he cares about, Mr. Harnisch also founded the Harnisch Foundation. Instead of directly funding projects across the entertainment and media sectors, it provides financial support and mentoring to other nonprofits. It focuses its efforts on groups serving women and minorities through large grants and its Awesome Without Borders initiative, where it donates $1,000 weekly to a new grassroots organization.
