LIFE & LEGACY

is a program dedicated to ensuring the future of our local Jewish organizations.

It reaffirms the importance of legacy giving at a time when we have been so reminded that you never know what the future will hold. Legacy commitments ensure that organizations that are providing impactful programs and services during both calm and turbulent times have the necessary resources to adapt.

In the first four years of this program, more than 500 donors have made legacy commitments that will support our Atlanta Jewish Community with more than $37.1M in future gifts.  Worldwide, the LIFE & LEGACY program has motivated more than 23,900 donors in 72 communities across North America to commit more than $1.3B to the Jewish future.
