Life and Legacy Program
The Arizona Jewish Historical Society is pleased to partner with the Harold Grinspoon Foundation and the Jewish Community Foundation of Greater Phoenix as part of the LIFE AND LEGACY Program. This program ensures the continuity of Jewish life for generations to come by endowment building through Legacy giving. For a full list of participating local organizations, please CLICK HERE.
We are the only organization dedicated to preserving the rich heritage of Arizona’s Jewish communities, educating the public about Jewish contributions to Arizona and American life and promoting awareness of our states diverse history. Through our efforts we promote a positive vision of Jewish identity. We use culture as a variable for encouraging Jews to engage and participate in Jewish community life. Our home, the Cutler-Plotkin Jewish Heritage Center (Phoenix’s original synagogue) encompasses the whole range of Jewish heritage, including history, language, literature, music, theater, comedy, and visual arts.
Through our programs and exhibitions, we also teach non-Jews about who we are, what we believe and the ways we have contributed to our larger society. We promote more than just tolerance, but rather friendship, respect, and a common understanding of the diverse cultures which make up our state.
Our legacy donors are individuals just like you who believe that by possessing our past we build our future. Our legacy donors also appreciate the Arizona Jewish Historical Society as a unique, creative and grassroots institution in our community. Please join us in preserving our past for future generations.
