Besides being a Long Island Insurance Executive, Gregg S. Marcus is also a humanitarian and philanthropist. Gregg always finds the time to lend a hand to charities that he holds close to his heart. With Rosh Hashana beginning tonight at sundown, this would be the perfect time to feature one of Gregg’s favorite charity organizations, Hineni Jewish Heritage Foundation.

Hineni means, "Here I am." It was the response of all the patriarchs and prophets of Israel to the call of G-d and signals total dedications and commitment to Jewish life. In 1982, Hineni Heritage Foundation first opened its doors in New York City. Today, the center, which was the first of it’s kind in the world, offers a comprehensive series of programs, including Torah, Talmud, Kabalah, Prophets, History, Rituals and Ceremonies in the home and synagogue, Hebrew language and Prayer, and one-on-one tutoring. Hineni also offers lectures, family counseling, an introduction service for singles and social gatherings.
