We believe the Jewish tradition of giving is one of the greatest attributes of our faith. To endow it in perpetuity through legacy gifts fulfills the commandment of Dor L’ Dor. More importantly, in our family, it demonstrates to our four children the importance of giving back to the community. It also helps to shape their connection to philanthropic and social opportunities.

As active participants in the community, we have learned the important role that the United Jewish Federation and the Jewish Community Center perform for the local community, as well as Israel and Jews throughout the world.

During our adult lifetime in San Diego we have seen the Jewish community prosper and grow.

Our leadership roles have given us a front row seat to observe and construct the seeds of change. As a Lion of Judah, Lori sets an example for our two daughters regarding the meaning of Tzedakah and leadership.

Our legacy gifts to UJF and the JCC will do our small part to ensure that these organizations that serve the community will continue to do so for future generations to come.
