As chairman of A Cap Inc Investment Management in New York, Jay Zises provides hedge fund and other investment services for high-net-worth individuals. Outside of his professional work, Jay Zises actively supports a number of charitable organizations, including Public Color. A design-based development program, Public Color helps to prepare high school students for college and career. Through the program, at-risk students are recruited to take on paint projects at their schools. Students gain experience with color, design, and critical thinking while also gaining real-world skills and a sense of community. Public Color also offers a Summer Design Studio program in which students take part in product design projects that also help them learn literacy skills and mathematics. Moreover, the program is held at the Pratt Institute to give students a taste of college, and students gain employment experience through painting local facilities. Additional information on Public Color and the Summer Design Studio is available at publiccolor.org.
