Bequests

Please consider including Jewish Child Care Association in your will, and share the following language with your attorney: "I bequeath the sum of $_____ to Jewish Child Care Association, a not-for-profit child and family service agency located in New York." For more information, please call Lorraine Braun at 212- 652-4728.

Give a Gift of Stock

Gifts of appreciated securities, closely held stock and mutual funds can be extremely beneficial—to both you and JCCA. Giving stock that has been held longer than one year allows you to avoid paying any capital gains tax that would otherwise be due. In addition, you can claim a charitable income tax deduction for the fair market value of the stock on the date on which it was transferred, not just its worth when you acquired it. For more information, please call Lorraine Braun at 212- 652-4728 or email braunl@jccany.org

If you would like to direct your gift to a JCCA program or project not listed, please call 212-558-9969 or mail your donation indicating the specific purpose for your gift to JCCA, 120 Wall Street, New York, NY 10005.
