endow my gift, as our estate is not huge. Then, at a Foundation event I attended, the speaker suggested that we should be discussing our estate and legacy with those who would be the recipients. I had never considered such an idea, but once I heard it explained, it made perfect sense to me. I gathered my children together and put forth the possibility of taking $100,000 out of their inheritance to endow my Lion of Judah
gift. They all completely endorsed the idea, saying that this is what I have done with my life and I should definitely leave that kind of legacy to the Jewish people.
I immediately altered my will and Article IV bequeaths $100,000 to the GMJF “to permanently endow a Lion of Judah level commitment to its Annual Campaign in my name, which commitment shall be publically recognized as such by the Greater Miami Jewish Federation.” How proud and how validated I feel to have typed those lines.
