How it Works

Focused on every step of the Jewish lifecycle, Chabad of Alameda will utilize your bequest to lead the Jewish future. Leaving a bequest is a great way to safeguard our Jewish community. Your charitable bequest ensures that your support of Chabad will continue in eternity.

• Designate a portion of your estate to Chabad of Alameda for a Jewish legacy.

• Leave either a percentage or a specific amount to Chabad.

• A bequest does not cost you anything during your lifetime.

• After your passing, the trustee will transfer the money or real estate to our institution.

• Bequests are revocable and can be changed or modified during your lifetime.

• Bequests can relieve the tax burden of your family.

• This is the most popular way for individuals to leave a Jewish legacy.

• Please inform Chabad of Alameda of your intention to leave a bequest, so we can properly recognize you as a member of the Jewish Legacy Society.
