The Foundation of the Jewish Federation of Greater Rochester was selected by the Harold Grinspoon Foundation to continue our participation in a national Jewish legacy giving program that has secured an estimated value of over a half-billion dollars for communities across North America.
LIFE & LEGACY is a collaborative program that helps individuals and families create legacy gifts for Jewish causes they care about, providing a permanent source of support for our community. LIFE & LEGACY was founded on the principle that all of us, regardless of age, wealth, or affiliation, can make an enduring impact. The Foundation administers the program in partnership with local synagogues and Jewish organizations in Rochester, which receive training and incentive grants from the Harold Grinspoon Foundation and Federation.
