Ensure the Future
of Reform Judaism...

Collectively, we can ensure the future for a strong Reform Movement in the years to come. Through a bequest, a gift of retirement plan assets, real property or appreciated securities, or a life income gift such as a charitable remainder trust, you can guarantee that Reform Judaism remains the most vibrant stream of Judaism in North America.

With the assistance of the Union’s Development Department staff, and in consultation with your financial advisor, you can craft a planned gift to meet your charitable and financial goals. For further information, visit the Planned Giving page or contact Christopher Haley at the Union at 212-650-4148 or chaley@urj.org.
