About Us
Where We Focus Our Giving
In the United States, the H. Hovnanian Family Foundation’s philanthropy is focused primarily on Monmouth and Ocean Counties of New Jersey. As Mr. Hovnanian acquired his wealth in these counties, he chose to direct his philanthropic endeavors in the same local communities.
