Jewish Home Foundation invites you to join our Building Together Annual Giving Program.

Leave a Legacy

By joining the Legacy Society, you can make a meaningful gift that extends far beyond today—creating a secure and vibrant future for the elders in our care. Legacy giving is more than a donation; it’s a lasting commitment to the values and services that define the Jewish Home Family. 

There are many ways to make a planned gift, and each one can be tailored to your personal, financial, and philanthropic goals. We’re happy to work with you and your advisors to find the option that’s right for you. 

Endowments — Establish a named fund during your lifetime or through your will. These funds can be added to over time and provide ongoing support for generations. 

Bequests — Include the Jewish Home Foundation in your will or trust to create a lasting impact with minimal planning. 

IRA & Life Insurance — Name the Jewish Home Foundation as a beneficiary—an easy way to give that often comes with tax benefits. 

Charitable Trusts — These legal arrangements allow you to support causes you care about while also receiving financial benefits.

Gifts of Recognition

There are many milestones in life. A donation can make those milestones even more memorable. It is a gift that pays tribute to someone in a truly meaningful way.

IN HONOR.

Commemorate special occasions like birthdays, bar and bat mitzvahs, weddings and anniversaries with your tribute gift. We’ll send an acknowledgment to your honoree or honoree’s family to notify them of your thoughtful gift.

IN MEMORY.

Make a gift in memory of a loved one who has passed. We will notify the family of your thoughtful gift in their memory. 

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.
Perpetual Yahrzeit – $1,000

Your one-time donation will support the Jewish Home Family’s mission to make aging a vital and meaningful experience by understanding and meeting each individual’s unique needs and providing care and services rooted in our tradition of Jewish values.
