Helping Sustain WHC for Generations to Come

Nobody is ever impoverished through the giving of charity.                 
-Maimonides                 

Washington Hebrew Congregation depends on your generous gifts to foster our most precious resource, meaningful relationships – with our faith, our community and each other.  Each gift to Washington Hebrew Congregation reflects your dedication to facilitate these relationships, through our inspirational worship services, excellent educational opportunities for students of all ages and interests, extensive social action programs, and exceptional Jewish cultural programs.  Most importantly, your support offers the benefits of membership to all who wish to join, regardless of income.

Our staff is here to help donors advance their personal financial and philanthropic goals while supporting the congregation’s programs and services. The simplest way to support Washington Hebrew Congregation is through a gift of cash or check, which enables the Temple to benefit from the full value of your gift and may provide the donor with a tax benefit as well.  Additionally, the congregation welcomes gifts of stock. It is surprisingly simple to make a gift of securities. As a 501(c)3 public charity, the congregation is also eligible for contributions made through a foundation or from donor-advised funds.

By making a Planned Gift to Washington Hebrew Congregation, you have the ability to shape the future of our Temple through the financial and estate planning decisions you make today.   There are many options which can enable you to make a meaningful gift, satisfy your financial concerns and offer you significant tax advantages.

Your generosity helps strengthen what we already do and makes our
possibilities even greater.  Every gift given to Washington Hebrew
Congregation makes a difference!
