The JCC East Bay Legacy Society

“Legacy giving is important to us because we want to ensure that these wonderful institutions will be ongoing, so that future generations can find the same joy and discovery of their Jewish heritage. L'dor V'dor. (From generation to generation)". – Nat and Bernadette Bitton

The JCC East Bay inspires, serves, and connects the Jewish community – and the wider community – today. By remembering JCC East Bay with a gift in your will, trust, retirement account, or life insurance policy, you can help ensure that the JCC East Bay remains a thriving community for generations to come. With a legacy gift, anyone can leave a meaningful contribution to the future.

If you have already included a legacy gift to the JCC East Bay in your plans, please let us know. We would love the opportunity to thank you. In addition, your legacy commitment will help the JCC East Bay secure a $5,000 grant from the Harold Grinspoon Foundation through its LIFE & LEGACY program.

Interested in becoming a member of the JCC East Bay Legacy Society? Click here to download our Legacy Declaration of Commitment (PDF). Send your form to our Berkeley Branch (attn: Julie Iny) or email juliei@jcceastbay.org.

Please contact us with any questions. We are happy to assist you.

  • Legacy gifts are gifts you give after your lifetime–from your will, trust, retirement account, or life insurance policy

  • There’s no minimum gift

  • Anyone can leave a legacy regardless of age, wealth, or affiliation

  • Many have set aside a small portion of their estates, like 5% or 10%, for the community
