The LEONARD AND HELEN R. STULMAN CHARITABLE FOUNDATION was established by Leonard Stulman, a Baltimore businessman and philanthropist and Johns Hopkins alumnus, who died in 2000. During their lifetimes, Mr. Stulman and his wife, Helen R. Stulman, made generous gifts to the Jewish community, the arts, music, theater, and to Johns Hopkins. The Stulman Foundation supports work in the areas of mental health, health, and aging. Ninety-five percent (95%) of funding from The Leonard and Helen R. Stulman Charitable Foundation is reserved for programs in greater Baltimore and the State of Maryland. In 2003 the Stulman Foundation endowed the Leonard and Helen R. Stulman Professorship in Mental Health and Psychiatric Nursing to support a professor jointly appointed to the School of Nursing and the School of Medicine Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences.
The Leonard and Helen R. Stulman Endowed Professorship in Aging and Community Health develops and evaluates innovative programs to enhance aging and provides essential policy advice to support older adults in the community.
