Planned Giving

A planned gift is a charitable donation that is created today and paid in the future. Through the profound act of giving a planned gift to Shaarai Shomayim, you ensure that your legacy extends far beyond your lifetime. Your generous contribution becomes a cornerstone of our efforts to foster a thriving Jewish community in Lancaster and beyond.

A planned gift is most often given as a bequest in the donor's will. Planned gifts may also be given by naming the Congregation as a beneficiary in your IRA or trust.

For more information on Planned Giving, please contact Vice President of Development, Samantha Besnoff, or Development and Communications Manager, Bethany Kristich.
