Marc and Eva Besen
David SOUTHWICK (Caulfield) (09:38): Last Thursday I attended a memorial service to celebrate the lives of Marc Besen AC and Eva Besen AO. Marc was a Holocaust survivor that came to Australia as a boy. Marc and Eva were married for 71 years. They built a successful retail empire – the Sussan group. Their passion was philanthropy, using their success for good. The Besen Family Foundation founded TarraWarra Museum, Australia’s first museum supported by a large private endowment; countless donations; and countless supports for schools, Jewish life, health and social welfare right across our community. The apple has not fallen far from the tree with Naomi Milgrom AC, Carol Schwartz AO, Debbie Dadon AM and Daniel Besen. All of their children do so much for philanthropy and the broader state of Victoria.
