Planned Giving Options

Dear friends of Israel,

After providing for your family and loved ones, I want to ask you to prayerfully consider putting The Jerusalem Connection, Intl in your will. This will help to ensure the long-term future of this ministry and our continued impact in the U.S. and Israel.

For tax purposes, we are a 501 (c)(3) organization. Bequests are free of estate tax, and can substantially reduce the amount of your assets claimed by the government. You can give much needed support to The Jerusalem Connection, Intl by simply including the following words in your will:

"I give, devise, and bequeath to The Jerusalem Connection, Intl (P.O. Box 20295 Washington DC 20041)-- Insert Gift Amount here-- to be used to support the ministry."

A bequest can be a specific dollar amount, a specific piece of property, a percentage of an estate, or all or part of the residue of an estate. You can also name The Jerusalem Connection, Intl as a contingency beneficiary in the event someone named in your will is no longer living. It is recommended that a lawyer help in drafting or amending a will.

If you have any questions, I would love to talk (see contact info. below). Also, if you want to find out more about planned giving options download the PDF "Planned Giving for Beginners."

Thank you for your consideration.

Shalom Aleichem (Peace be upon you),
