What is LIFE & LEGACY®?

LIFE & LEGACY is a 4-year partnership program of the Harold Grinspoon Foundation (HGF) that assists communities across North America, through partnership 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 in order to ensure vibrant Jewish life for future generations.

“The LIFE & LEGACY® program has been truly transformative for our community and the agencies that have participated.  Not only have we raised millions of dollars to ensure the future of the Jewish People, but we have also brought our community closer together and created a Kahila Kadosha.”
