BEQUEST- CREATING A JEWISH FUTURE

Leaving a bequest is a great way to safeguard our Jewish community. Your charitable bequest ensures that your support of Chabad will continue in eternity.

How a Bequest Works

  • Designate a portion of your estate to Chabad for a Jewish legacy.
  • Leave either a percentage or a specific amount to Chabad.
  • A bequest does not cost you anything during your lifetime.
  • After your passing, the trustee will transfer the money or real estate to our institution.
  • Bequests are revocable and can be changed or modified during your lifetime.
  • Bequests can relieve the tax burden of your family.
  • This is the most popular way for individuals to leave a Jewish legacy.
  • Please inform Chabad of your intention to leave a bequest, so we can properly recognize you as a member of the Jewish Legacy Society.

Residuary Bequest – Chabad is given a percentage of the estate.

Outright Bequest – Chabad is given a specific dollar amount or a specific asset, such as securities or real estate.
