John and Hilary's legacy gifts will benefit Charleston Jewish Federation, Jewish Family Services, and KKBE.
While they have inspired us, we are doing things differently than when our parents were raising us. We have the opportunity to talk more about money and where and why and how, and that’s something that our generation can do better and start doing it now. We want to be very open with our kids and talk about why we spend our time and energy and money on the places that are important to us.
A good Jewish value is showing that you not only want to take care of yourself and your family but also care about something that is bigger than yourself. We are leaving legacy gifts to Jewish Family Services, Charleston Jewish Federation, and KKBE. We are able to support many facets within the Jewish community through these organizations, and a wonderful thing about being involved in Federation is that you get to touch so many aspects of Jewish life not only locally but around the world. Each of these organizations are so important and need to remain strong for the future of Jewish life in Charleston.
