I AM NOT A WEALTHY PERSON. CAN MY GIFT MAKE A DIFFERENCE?

Yes, every gift is important. Leaving a bequest to Beth Tzedec is your opportunity to take care of your family while also creating a meaningful Jewish legacy. Gifts of all sizes contribute to the strength and sustainability of our congregation.

WHAT IS A BEQUEST?

A bequest is a gift of property or assets left to Beth Tzedec in your will. A bequest can be established as either a percentage of your estate or a fixed sum. Every bequest is a powerful expression of faith in the future of our Jewish community.

HOW CAN MY MONEY WORK FOR ME IN MY LIFETIME?

A charitable gift annuity is a popular way to support Beth Tzedec while receiving income during your lifetime. For example, setting up a gift annuity can provide guaranteed payments above market rates, offering both financial security and lasting impact.

HOW CAN LIFE INSURANCE BENEFIT BETH TZEDEC?

You can make a significant legacy gift by naming Beth Tzedec as the beneficiary of an existing or new life insurance policy. In some cases, this gift can be far greater than what you could donate during your lifetime, providing lasting support for our community.
