Create a Lasting Legacy

L’Dor V’Dor, meaning “from generation to generation,” reflects the importance of passing down values, traditions and philanthropy. By making a legacy gift, you help secure the future of Goodman JFS’ essential services, ensuring we can continue supporting the most vulnerable in our community. By doing so, you can also become a valued member of the L’Dor V’Dor Society, joining a distinguished group of individuals committed to preserving and strengthening Jewish social services for generations to come.
