AREW charitable fund names spring Merle Gross-Ginsburg scholarships

According to Association of Real Estate Women (AREW) charitable fund co-chairs Madelyne Kirch, Sun & Moon Marketing Communications, and Stephanie Butler, Horizon Land Services, the recipients of spring 2010 scholarships named in honor of Merle Gross-Ginsburg, founder and first president of the AREW, have been unveiled. The recipients are Rachel Marom, an investment analyst in the transactions and capital markets group at Prudential Real Estate Investors; Allison Robin, an associate project manager at Levien & Co.; and Natalya Malinksy, a senior underwriter in commercial real estate banking at JPMorganChase. The three recipients recently attended a reception hosted by James Stuckey, divisional dean, and SCPS dean Robert Lapiner of NYU Schack Institute of Real Estate honoring Merle Gross-Ginsburg, James and Marjorie Kuhn and AREW as visionaries. For over 20 years NYU has partnered with AREW and the AREW Charitable Fund and been the recipient of over $50,000 in scholarships funds earmarked to benefit members of groups, including women, that have been traditionally underrepresented in the real estate industry. In 2008, the James and Marjorie Kuhn Program "to foster diversity in real estate" at NYU Schack was funded.
