Jan Tuttleman I endowed my annual UJF gift and other gifts because I believe in and feel passionate about the San Diego Jewish community. I want to be sure that if anything happened to me, my gifts would continue to be given. Since the untimely death of my husband at 41 years of age, I know how fragile life is and how one needs to prepare for the unexpected. Our Jewish community, both local and global, depends on my endowment gifts; therefore I want them to know that they will always be able to depend on me.
