Thank You to all Life & Legacy® Participants in Southern New Jersey!

The approaching Passover holiday marks an important time of year when we remember our people's past, and prepare for our future.

With this as a backdrop, since 2014, the Jewish Community Foundation, Inc. has served as South Jersey's coordinating agency of the Life & Legacy initiative of the Harold Grinspoon Foundation.

In this role, the JCF has had the privilege of working with nearly two dozen local Jewish organizations-- including the Jewish Federation of Southern New Jersey and its family of agencies, day schools, and synagogues-- to promote the importance of leaving a gift in one's will in any amount to help ensure our community remains vibrant and strong for future generations.

During this time, 636 Letters of Intent have been signed by generous and foresighted individuals, resulting in a sum of 933 commitments, and an estimated future endowment asset amount of over $23 million.

This resounding response brightens our hope, and we say a hearty "Thank You!" to all Life & Legacy participants in Southern New Jersey.

We invite you to review our complete list of Life & Legacy participants, at bottom, which will also appear in the April 16 issue of the Jewish Community Voice, or click here for a PDF.

To join these hundreds of individuals in committing to a legacy gift, please contact any participating organization or reach out to JCF Assistant Director Mike Staff at 856-673-2528 to learn more.

We wish you and your loved ones a zissen Pesach (sweet Passover), and thank you for making our community-- and world-- a better place.
