Endowment Campaign

Endowing Our Future Today

“…as my parents planted for me so do I plant for my children.” – Ta’anit 23a

Your support of the endowment fund will ensure that the important work of Kehillat Ma’arav will continue in perpetuity.

Current Gifts include the following:

Cash: A donor may support the campaign with a gift or pledge of cash; pledges are payable over a period of up to five years.

Gifts of Securities: Giving publicly traded appreciated securities offer donors tax advantages.  Not only can the donor deduct the full fair market value of the security; you can also avoid capital gains tax on the application.

Future (Legacy) Gifts include the following:

Bequests: You may name KM as a beneficiary of your will, either with a designated amount, a percentage, or as a recipient of funds after other beneficiaries have received their bequests.

Gifts of Life Insurance: You may support KM through a gift of life insurance.  You may either purchase a policy or give a policy you already own.  If you make KM the owner and beneficiary of the policy, the gift is deductible.

Gifts from Retirement Plans: Donors of any age can make a deferred gift of an IRA or other retirement account by naming KM as a beneficiary of the account at their death.

Charitable Trusts: A variety of trust arrangements are available that offer income and/or estate tax benefits.

To support the campaign, fill out a campaign pledge form and mail to KM or give online.
