Today, in collaboration with our fundholders’ professional advisors, our dedicated team is implementing innovative estate planning strategies, which provide optimal tax benefits and turn donors’ philanthropic visions into positive change. By providing the highest level of personal attention, we continuously help transform our fundholders’ philanthropic objectives into realities.Through the Dallas Jewish Community Foundation, donor directed philanthropy may be in the form of designated, endowment, field of interest or donor advised funds for current giving or to perpetuate philanthropy from one generation to the next. One excellent vehicle utilized at the Foundation to memorialize or honor loved ones is our named scholarship program. Additionally, our legacy initiative for the future has reached an estimated $270 million in bequests and endowment commitments*. Our outstanding team of volunteers, professional leadership, and experienced staff justify our proud standing as one of the premier community foundations in the State of Texas.
