Celebrate Your Heritage with a Legacy Gift

Contribute to the future of JewishGen by planning for a special kind of gift.  A planned gift creates a meaningful personal legacy at JewishGen, while securing the future of this important organization and its mission.

There are many ways to include JewishGen in your charitable giving and estate planning:

    • Bequest —
      One of the easiest and most important ways to support JewishGen's future is by naming JewishGen a beneficiary in your will.  This may be made with a specific dollar amount, asset, or percentage of your estate. Please let us know if you have made a provision for JewishGen in your estate plans, so that we may honor you on JewishGen's Tree of Life Society.

    • Retirement Plans and Beneficiary Designations —
      Retirement (i.e., IRA), life insurance, and real estate assets may all be donated to JewishGen.  Making a gift in this manner can mean significant tax advantages for your estate and your heirs.

    Each gift makes a difference.  Together with your own financial planners, let us help you create a legacy to meet your unique financial, tax, and estate planning goals while ensuring that JewishGen’s mission of “preserving our history for future generations” continues. Donors who contribute through a planned gift or notify us that they have made a provision for JewishGen in their estate plans are honored and recognized as members of JewishGen's Tree of Life Society.
