In June 2016 the Jewish Community Foundation began a partnership with the Harold Grinspoon Foundation as part of the LIFE & LEGACY program. As of April 2019 our community has secured 387 legacy gifts representing a value of $22.3 million. This is a partnership that continues through January 2021.
LIFE & LEGACY is a 4–year partnership program of the Harold Grinspoon Foundation that assists communities across North America, through partnerships with Jewish Federations and Foundations, to promote after-lifetime giving to benefit local Jewish day schools, synagogues, social service organizations and other Jewish entities. Through training, support and monetary incentives LIFE & LEGACY motivates Jewish organizations to secure legacy gifts, steward donors and integrate legacy giving into the philanthropic culture of the Jewish community.
