Hedge Fund Philanthropy: NY Casino Night

New York (HedgeCo.net) – High Water Women is getting ready for their 7th annual Casino Night. The event takes place Thursday, April 26, 2012, at Gotham Hall, 1356 Broadway at 36th Street. “Casino Night” has helped to raise more than $2 million in grants since 2005. $125 per ticket.

Founded by a small group of senior women from the hedge fund community, High Water Women engages women throughout the financial services sector in philanthropic giving and volunteerism. The name derives from the high water mark measure that incentivizes hedge funds to outperform their last best gains.

The group’s objective is to empower women and youth in need by creating volunteer opportunities that leverage the talents and aspirations of professional women.  Founded in 2005, High Water Women has more than 2,300 members across the financial services spectrum and partnerships with 15 nonprofit organizations.
