Annual Giving Program
The Jewish Home Foundation invites you to join our Building Together Annual Giving Program. Your participation in this program will provide annual operating funds for programs and services delivered by the Jewish Home Family to our residents. Your financial support is critical in allowing us to provide the best possible quality of life to our elders each day.
Building Together Annual Giving Program provides you with the opportunity to support our elders while enjoying specific benefits to attend Foundation fundraising events throughout the year. Your generosity will be recognized on a plaque on the Rockleigh Campus and in Jewish Home Family publications throughout the year.
Your gift makes a difference. Your gift to the Jewish Home Foundation secures the future of Jewish Home Family’s innovative services and abundant programming that helps elders live full, rich and healthy lives. There is no greater privilege than giving back to those who have contributed so much of their lives and their love to our community.
Contributions may be made through the Jewish Home Foundation which is a not-for-profit, 501(c)(3) organization. Contributions made to the Foundation are tax-deductible as permitted by law.

Leave a Legacy
By joining the Legacy Society, you have the opportunity to make a meaningful gift that extends far beyond today – creating a brighter, more secure future for elders in our care. Legacy giving is more than a donation; it’s a commitment to sustaining vital programs and services for generations to come. Together, we can ensure that the needs of our community continue to be met, year after year.
There are many ways to make a planned gift, and your planned gift should be as unique as you are. We can work with you and your financial, personal estate, and/or tax advisors to customize your legacy gift. Some ways others have made gifts in the past include:
Endowments
Endowments may be established with a gift in your lifetime or through your will. After you create an endowment fund, you may continue to add gifts to that fund. Additional funds for your endowment may come as a bequest in your will. Your endowment fund may be named for you or someone whom you wish to honor. Endowments continue in perpetuity, remaining for generations to come, creating a meaningful legacy for individuals and their families.
Bequest
A bequest is one of the easiest gifts to make. With the help of an advisor, you can include language in your will or trust specifying a gift be made to Jewish Home Foundation of North Jersey, Inc. (JHF), to benefit Jewish Home Family, as part of your estate plan.
IRA
Contact your financial institution and name the Jewish Home Foundation of North Jersey, Inc. as the beneficiary of your IRA.
Life Insurance
Designate the Jewish Home Foundation of North Jersey, Inc. as the beneficiary of your life insurance policy by contacting your provider and updating your beneficiary form.
Charitable Trusts
A charitable trust is a legal arrangement that allows you to donate assets to a charity while also receiving benefits. Charitable trusts may be used to support causes you care about, such as the Jewish Home Foundation, while also providing tax benefits.

Remembering a Loved One
The Jewish Home Foundation’s Perpetual Yahrzeit ensures that Kaddish will be recited yearly on the Shabbat that coincides with your loved one’s anniversary of their passing. On that day, the name of the departed, and the comforting words of Kaddish, will be recited in the Jewish Home Family Synagogue on the Rockleigh Campus. Each year, you will receive a notification from the Jewish Home
Foundation with the Yahrzeit date.
