Legacy Fall 2022

My Final Reflec tion

I learned a long time ago that when you become a donor at The Foundation, it ’s not just a fund you acquire; it ’s also a family you join And just like a loving family can nourish its members in innumerable ways, so too The Foundation’s family suppor ts its donors in myriad ways. You’ll learn more about it in this issue of Legac y magazine

Hopefully you have benefited significantly from the many resources, seminars, network ing oppor tunities, and philanthropic consulting that we offer our donors as well as our grantees and professional advisors. I t ’s a donor experience that has become much richer and more rewarding than ever in my three - decades-plus of leadership here. I truly hope you are capitalizing on all that The Foundation offers.

With my tenure as president and CEO concluding at year end, I’m reassured k nowing I will continue to have a fulfilling Foundation experience through all the donor resources available to me and to ever y Foundation donor.

I also k now that with R abbi Aaron Lerner assuming the leadership role in early Januar y, The Foundation’s future is bright. He comes to The Foundation after a decade propelling Hillel at UCLA to new heights and ensuring its impressive reputation among the many Hillel organizations across America R abbi Lerner is a passionate and innovative professional who has impressed me in ever y interac tion we’ve had. I am confident in a promising future for this great foundation.

So how does one sum up 33 years of leading one of the finest community foundations in America?

I have been grateful ever y one of these 12,000+ days to be in a position to help repair our broken world and assist many others in doing likewise. What could be more rewarding than that?

O ver the decades, I’ve proudly worked with many dedicated philanthropists, vital nonprofits, outstanding board members, accomplished professional advisors, and our talented staff. We have faced numerous community challenges and all k inds of urgent crises. Through it all, I’ve been continually inspired and motivated by the enormous goodness of our fellow human beings in solving seemingly unsurmountable challenges and bringing much-needed healing to our world.

At our most recent Board of Trustees meeting in November, my last one, we shared some inspiring words on that week ’s Torah por tion of Lech Lecha,

which means “go for th.” The Almighty direc ts Abraham and Sarah to leave their city of Haran and to go for th into the world to spread the message of Judaism

My son, Daniel, who spoke about the Torah por tion explained what it was like watching his father lead The Foundation for many years and spread the message of tzedakah to our community He shared that it ultimately inspired him to lead a life connec ted to community and committed to philanthropy. I could not have been prouder.

He concluded by saying, “Now it ’s your turn to lech lecha, dad I t ’s time for you to go for th into the nex t stage of your life and face the new challenge ahead ” Just as Abraham was 75 when he was commanded to go for th, I, too, embark on a new lech lecha journey at the same age Although I’m not sure what the future has in store for me, I proceed in confidence, k nowing that my deep connec tion to The Foundation will help sustain the Schotland family for years to come.

May we all go from strength to strength!

Opening a Fund Is Just the Beginning

Financial ser vices institutions play a vital role in the smooth func tioning of our society. Among many other things, they enable us to secure home mor tgages, finance business transac tions, and take out loans for college. Yet, there is one area of impac t where a bank or brokerage firm’s abilities can’t match the combination of k nowledge, exper tise, and ser vice offered by a nonprofit like the Jewish Community Foundation. When it comes to strengthening the social fabric through philanthropy, there is no better vehicle for most individuals and families than The Foundation’s signature Donor Advised Fund (DAF).

Simplicity is Key

The idea behind the DAF is simple: By opening a fund with The Foundation, you gain an easy, accessible tool for mak ing charitable donations without the administrative headaches You tell us where to direc t your donor dollars, and we take care of the rest, providing you with one centralized location for recording your gifts and track ing your tax deduc tions. I t ’s a power ful approach to giving that has attrac ted record-break ing investment: The Foundation currently manages more than $1.5 billion in assets entrusted to us by 1,400 families, rank ing us among the 10 largest foundations in Los Angeles

There’s a reason so many people turn to The Foundation to dispense their charitable gifts The secret to our success is ser vice going well beyond the resources that a bank or brokerage makes available to clients in order to maximize our donors’ effec tiveness in mak ing a difference for local communities.

Value -Added Benefits

Opening a DAF with The Foundation is just the beginning. Once your DAF has been established, you have complimentar y access to our Center for Designed Philanthropy,

a seasoned team of professionals dedicated to helping you explore your interests and meet your giving goals. Through the Center, we empower you to craft meaningful giving strategies that leverage our deep k nowledge in areas ranging from homelessness, social welfare, and early childhood development to Israel and Jewish

Understanding the Landscape

We have an intimate understanding of the nonprofit landscape across Los Angeles and Israel, and we share our information and insight through far-reaching educational programs (in person and online) that keep you abreast of the latest trends in philanthropy. Our educational series Insights on Giving: A Series of Talks on Philanthropy brings donors up close and personal with leading thinkers and prac titioners spanning a comprehensive array of subjec t areas. In addition, our

engagement

“The secret to our success is ser vice — going well beyond the resources that a bank or brokerage makes available to clients.”

popular donor and grantee network ing events allow you to build vital par tnerships with other like -minded individuals focused on advancing tikkun olam, repair of the world and the pursuit of justice.

Connec ted to Something Bigger

These collaborations are a significant benefit to giving through a DAF because they connec t you to something bigger: a group of people banding together to advance the common good. Work ing in concer t as par t of a larger community dramatically increases the effec t of an individual contribution and expands the potential positive outcome for the specific cause at hand

A Major Distinc tion

One question I often encounter from donors is what The Foundation does with the fee we charge for administering a DAF. The answer showcases another key distinc tion between The Foundation and a traditional bank . In both cases, a por tion of the fee goes toward

the cost of running the DAF, but that ’s where the similarities end because we each have a different definition for what constitutes our bottom line Banks see DAF fees as an impor tant revenue center: the income they generate translates to shareholder profit At The Foundation, we channel those fees into additional grants that will make our community better, essentially multiplying the power of ever y contribution. I t ’s a double blessing: When you donate through a Foundation DAF, your gift does good, and the fee you pay helps it do even better.

Doing right by the community has afforded us a longevity that many other institutions lack . We are proud to work alongside multiple generations of families (often, wealth creators and their children and grandchildren), who turn to us for guidance about putting values into ac tion and leaving a vibrant legac y. We look for ward to speak ing with you and your loved ones as well, and we encourage you to reach out to us to learn more.

To explore more about the benefits of a DAF par ticularly before year end, please contact our Development office at 323.761.8704 or development@jewishfoundationla.org.

We are proud to work alongside multiple generations of families who turn to us for guidance. . . ”

STA C Y R E Z N I KO F F K E N T & R A N O N K E N T

Stac y and Ranon are second-generation Foundation donors, having learned the value of tikkun olam and strategic giving from their parents. They opened a Donor Advised Fund of their own at The Foundation in 2005. Stac y recently joined our Israel Grants Committee and discusses her family ’s relationship with us.

QWhy did you become a Foundation donor?

The shor t answer is because my parents (Rita and Herb Reznikoff, z ’’l) were Foundation donors. They always modeled for us their commitment to tzedakah, community, and suppor ting organizations and causes that they believe would affec t our Jewish life both locally and globally.

QHave you turned to The Foundation for guidance about your giving or used other Foundation ser vices? What was that like for you?

Yes! When we were newly married and star ting to build our own family, I remember speak ing to our parents and reflec ting that ever y organization I have ever said hello to is ask ing for suppor t. How do you figure this out? How do we k now who to suppor t, especially when resources are limited and we can’t possibly give to ever yone? At the time my dad said one way to star t is, “Give where your k ids are” suppor t the institutions that are helping them and your family grow. As you grow, you’ll see, you can branch out from there

Since that time, both my parents passed away. Now we rely on The Foundation to help us navigate our charitable giving. I t has offered not only a simple organizing struc ture but also education when we would have other wise looked to our parents for that guidance The Foundation has introduced us to organizations we would not other wise k now about and, equally impor tant, to community leaders whose involvement in The Foundation has often ser ved as our philanthropic mentoring model.

What Foundation educational or networking events have you attended, online or in-person? Why was it valuable for you?

We have attended online and in-person educational webinars on topics including family estate planning, local community building, and global relief effor ts for Jewish communities in crisis. Each program has been a valuable experience and has reinforced the choice we made to be par t of The Foundation

“

I t was evident to us from the star t that The Foundation was the best address for charitable giving, which connec ts us all to the larger Jewish community.”

K L A R A & M A RT I N S H A N D L I N G M E E T

Mar tin ser ved as president of Beth Jacob Congregation, the largest Or thodox shul west of the Mississippi, and has an intimate k nowledge of the inner work ings, challenges, and needs of the Los Angeles Jewish community. He and his wife, Klara, recently opened a DAF at The Foundation and are look ing for ward to deepening their relationship with us.

QWhat causes do you suppor t through your Donor Advised Fund?

QWhy did you become a Foundation donor?

I k new a number of lay leaders and staff associated with The Foundation, so in December 2019 when I wanted to donate a highly appreciated security to a DAF, The Foundation was the obvious choice In my professional life as a wealth manager and financial advisor, I have been responsible for executing the sale of many listed securities that have been donated to The Foundation.

QWhat Foundation educational or networking events have you attended, online or in person? Why were they valuable for you?

In prior years I have attended several Foundation events mostly on estate planning and related legal issues. This helped to sharpen my k nowledge of client-facing wealth management issues.

There may be too many to list! Aside from The Jewish Federation of Greater Los Angeles, we suppor t among others, Bir thright Israel, Beit Issie Shapiro, Chabad at USC, Friends of the Israel Defense Forces, Pressman Academy, Uk rainian Jews (via the Or thodox Union), the Simon Wiesenthal Center, and of course our synagogue, Beth Jacob Congregation of Beverly Hills

Q

Why would you refer a friend to The Foundation?

Largely because of the elegance and simplicity of the website and the online donor ser vices por tal, which makes it so easy to recommend grants and provides such a clear and readable accounting of all one’s transac tions.

Q

How has having a Donor Advised Fund helped you address the issues you see most pressing?

In general, having the ability to quickly react in suppor ting various charitable appeals via The Foundation helps us address issues that in the past may have taken longer or dropped off our radar
