A graduate of New York University who holds a bachelor of arts in political science and history, Jay Zises has worked in the financial services industry for decades. He currently serves as the chairman of A Cap Investment Management and is a founder and initial investor of Esquire Bank. When he isn't working, Jay Zises supports a number of charitable nonprofits, including HELP USA. Short for "housing enterprise for the less privileged," HELP USA is primarily focused on helping homeless individuals and families find essential shelter. However, it also provides a range of additional support services as needed. For example, each year since 2000, the HELP USA Scholarship Fund recognizes women and men who have overcome domestic violence and homelessness with multiple $5,000 educational and professional grants. In recognition of the former vice president's long record of support for survivors of domestic violence among other humane initiatives, HELP recently honored Joe Biden at its 30th Annual Scholarship Awards Luncheon on March 16, 2017. Governor Andrew Cuomo was on hand to award Vice President Biden the HELP HERO Humanitarian Award in recognition of the leading roles that Biden has taken in projects such as the passage of the Violence Against Women’s Act of 1994 and the creation of an Advisor on Violence Against Women post at the White House.
