Legacy Giving

We love and support CCJDS today.  How can we ensure that our school continues to serve children in our community after we are gone?  Leaving a gift to the Contra Costa Jewish Day School in your will, trust, retirement account or life insurance policy is one of the easiest ways to minimize your family’s estate taxes, while supporting and strengthening the quality of Jewish life and education in our community for generations to come.  There is no minimum financial commitment.
