Barbara and Gerson Bakar Foundation Dba the Achieve Foundation

San Francisco, California, United States

Overview

Barbara and Gerson Bakar Foundation (operating as The Achieve Foundation), established by San Francisco real estate developer and philanthropist Gerson Bakar (d. 2017) and his wife Barbara, holds roughly $133M in assets. Note: this is a distinct entity from the separately-tracked Bakar Bioenginuity Hub (LP0006234), which traces to a different UC Berkeley Bakar-family gift -- flagging to avoid conflating the two Bakar-named philanthropic vehicles.
