Giving Opportunities

Your Gift to Hillel can Make a Great Difference!

Jewish college students throughout Philadelphia are celebrating their Jewish culture and heritage every day thanks to the dynamic opportunities provided through Hillel.

Hillel of Greater Philadelphia serves over 10,000 Jewish students attending 20 institutions of higher education in the region. Even though they come from a multitude of backgrounds, as varied as the colleges and universities that they now attend, this generation of young Jews is searching for a Jewish community filled with celebration, learning and creativity – a community where they belong.

Hillel is providing them with this foundation.

Hillel is ideally positioned to make a positive difference. And, we ask you to join us as our partner by supporting Hillel today.

1.) Gifts by Will (Bequests)
A gift to Hillel in your will is one of the easiest and most important ways to ensure that your support for Jewish campus life continues beyond your lifetime. By having a will, you can fully provide for your family and loved ones, while ensuring that your assets are distributed as you wish. A bequest to Hillel in your will is easy to set up and, of course, can be changed as your circumstances evolve.

2.) Gifts that Give Back (Life Income Gifts)
You don't have to give up income in order to support Jewish life on campus. There are several ways that you can transfer assets to Hillel and receive payments in return, either for life or a term of years. Life income gifts can be made during one's lifetime, or at death to benefit one's heirs, and offer a variety of financial, tax, and estate planning benefits.

3.) Life Insurance
A life insurance policy is an excellent way to make a substantial gift to Hillel at relatively little cost.

To discuss any of these giving opportunities, or for information on making a gift of stocks, securities or other assets, please call Marla Meyers, Director of Institutional Advancement, at (215)898-8265 or by email at mmeyers@phillyhillel.org.
