Legacy Endowments

LIFE & LEGACY™ is a 4-year partnership program of the Harold Grinspoon Foundation (HGF) that assists communities across North America, through partnerships with Jewish Federations and Foundations, to promote after-lifetime giving to benefit 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.

In November of 2017 Jewish Nevada and The Harold Grinspoon Foundation launched this outstanding program in Nevada. With 7 local organizations and agencies as participating partners, the Nevada LIFE & LEGACY™ Program will secure legacy commitments to support local organizations, and ensure a thriving future for our Jewish community.

What Do You Want YOUR Legacy To Be?

Welcome to the Jewish Community Foundation of JewishNevada

JewishNevada is here to assist you and your family in planning your philanthropic goals, as well as achieving your long term estate planning goals.

We can help you create the right plan for you through the use of: bequests, charitable gift annuities, gifts of appreciated assets such as publicly traded securities and real estate, gifts of paid up life insurance policies, along with charitable remainder and charitable lead trusts.

We look forward to exploring with you the possibility of ensuring the future needs of our Jewish community locally in Southern Nevada, the United States, in Israel and in diaspora communities around the world.

Donor Advised Funds

A Donor Advised Fund is a personalized charitable fund held by the Jewish Community Foundation of JewishNevada, where the donor(s) may recommend charitable organizations to receive grants from the fund. Establishing a Donor Advised Fund can provide both you and the Jewish Community Foundation with substantial advantages for the present and the future. Click here for the brochure.

Legacy Gift

A legacy commitment is a way for each of us to help shape today, the community we hope to see tomorrow. It is a gift that keeps on giving, one whose impact will ensure a thriving, vibrant Jewish life in Las Vegas and beyond. We aim to create a community our grandparents would be proud of, and our grandchildren will thank us for. We hope you will join us in leaving a lasting legacy here in Nevada.
