Planned Giving Programs

Planned Giving at Jewish Senior Life

A planned giving program offers you a way to make long-lasting contributions to the JSL Foundation through thoughtful, future-focused gifts. These gifts help secure our residents’ well-being, enhance services, and support the long-term goals of our agency.

Why Planned Giving?

  • Create a lasting legacy: You can leave a significant impact, ensuring future generations of older adults receive exceptional care.
  • Tax advantages: Depending on the type of gift, you may receive tax deductions or avoid capital gains taxes.
  • A choice of giving methods: Planned gifts can be made through bequests, charitable trusts, and other strategies that allow you to support JSL in a way that works for you.

Before making a planned gift, consult with your financial or legal advisor to understand the best option for your financial situation and goals.

Choose from one of the planned giving options (bequest, CRT, life insurance, etc.) that works best for you and your family.

Types of Planned Gifts

Please notify us once you’ve made the decision: let us know your intentions, so we can ensure your wishes are honored. You can remain anonymous if you prefer, but we would love the opportunity to thank you. We will keep you informed about the impact your gift is having for our residents, programs, and services.

A gift of a life insurance policy can create a lasting endowment to ensure future resident care and staffing.
