Supporting Jewish life. No matter what.

After an arson attack in January that directly impacted the ISJL, our team continued showing up across the Jewish South—training educators, supporting communities, celebrating Jewish life, and bringing people together. For our second annual Giving Day, we invite you to support this work, today and for the future. Make your gift now and help us reach our goal of $25,000 and 25 new monthly donors.

Donate Stock to the ISJL  By making a gift of appreciated stock, you are ensuring that Jews across the South have access to meaningful Jewish experiences while benefiting from several financial advantages. These can include an income tax deduction for the full market value of your gift, avoidance of capital gains taxes, and the ability to make a larger gift at a lower original cost to you. 
​

We encourage you to consult with your financial planner or tax advisor to determine how these tax advantages might apply to your specific situation.

Inform the ISJL of your gift! Privacy laws discourage brokerage firms from providing client names in connection with stock gifts. Please let us know about your gift so we can provide you with a formal tax receipt for your contribution. Please contact Michele Schipper, the ISJL’s CEO, at (601) 362-6357, ext
266, with your name, phone number, and email address.
