A gift to the Annual Appeal is a simple and meaningful way to support the Alpert JCC.  Your donation provides the Alpert JCC with the ability to provide scholarship assistance, improve and expand vital program offerings and bridge the gap between program fees and operating costs.  Your unrestricted donation provides the flexibility to use the funds to respond where the need is the greatest.

Tribute and memorial contributions are a meaningful way to celebrate, honor or memorialize friends and family by making gifts in their name.  Gifts may be designated to a particular fund or area at the Alpert JCC or you can designate that your gift be used where the need is greatest.

Your gift will be acknowledged by a letter to the individual or family expressing your sentiment and announcing your gift in their honor.  The gift will also be printed in the monthly Jewish Community Chronicle newsletter and on the AJCC website Tributes page.  The amount of the gift is not included.

You may make a tribute or memorial donation online.

For more information about Tribute and Memorial gifts, please call (562) 426-7601 Ext. 1414.

There are many ways to leave a legacy, and for those who would like their legacy to include a long-term gift to the Alpert JCC, there are three options to consider -- planned giving, endowments and non-traditional gifts.

Planned Giving
Planned gifts are designed to fit within a donor's comprehensive estate plans, fulfilling the donor's philanthropic goals, reducing income taxes, avoiding capital gains or estate taxes, and retaining lifetime income if desired, all while helping to guarantee the Alpert JCC's future financial support.  Common forms of planned giving include bequests and charitable gift annuities.

Endowments
A non-profit's endowments represent its permanently held capital.  Depending upon the guidelines established for each particular endowment, income and/or principal from the endowment can be used to support the Alpert JCC's work.  Endowments provide a secure source of long-term support.

Non-Traditional Gifts
Non-traditional gifts to the Alpert JCC could include gifts of personal property, life insurance policies, retirement plans, real estate and appreciated stocks.

To learn more about legacy giving, please contact Sharon Kenigsberg at the Jewish Community Foundation at (562) 426-7601 Ext. 1008.

In addition to financial support, we welcome your gift of time.  Volunteers are the lifeblood of our organization and your service is one of the richest gifts of all.  Click here for more information about volunteer opportunities at the Alpert JCC.
