The Grandis Foundation
The Harriet and Harry Grandis Family Foundation
has been an invaluable part of the Richmond community for many years.
Mr. Harry Grandis has shown his support for organizations such as the
Children’s Museum of Richmond,
the Virginia Home for Boys and the Virginia Museum of Fine
Arts to name just a few.
The Grandis Foundation has been especially generous to Virginia Commonwealth
University, giving more than $505,057 to the VCU Massey Cancer Center,
the School of Medicine, VCU Libraries and the Humanities and Sciences
Department. Their largest gifts, however, have been made to the Massey
Cancer Center. Most recently, Mr. Grandis made a $150,000 gift to establish
the Grandis Lung Cancer Research Fund at Massey. The research fund will
support the team of specialists at Massey who are dedicated to chest tumor
research and treatment.
In 2000, Mr. Grandis was the recipient of the Wayne Medal
for his extraordinary generosity to VCU throughout the years.
