Life & Legacy -
WHO WE ARE NOW
The Hebrew Educational Alliance inspires lives of meaning, purpose, and belonging through vibrant Judaism. We are a Kehillah Kedosha (sacred community) helping people flourish through the wisdom of Torah. We do this by focusing on ruach (spirit), relationships, and community, deepening our connection to one another and the Divine. Our souls are awakened through spirited and authentic prayer, music, Torah study, and communal and home-based rituals. We pray, sing, dance, learn and EAT with ruach. We embrace the experience of transmitting our love of Judaism to the next generation.
PLANNING FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS
In 2018, the Hebrew Educational Alliance was fortunate to have been selected to participate, along with 27 other local Jewish organizations, in Live On | LIFE & LEGACY™, a program that supports Jewish organizations in securing legacy gifts. Live On: Build Your Jewish Legacy, an initiative of Rose Community Foundation, and LIFE & LEGACY™, a partnership program of the Harold Grinspoon Foundation, joined together to strengthen the Greater Denver/Boulder Jewish communities by encouraging endowment building and legacy giving.
Since then, new legacy donors who are congregants just like you have committed to ensuring that our spiritual home based on ruach, relationship, and community remains vital and strong for future generations. Long-time member Jeff Auerbach shared his reasons for becoming a legacy donor:
“My hope is that by being part of the HEA Life and Legacy team, we will ensure that the HEA will be around for years to come. Just as the HEA was there for my dad when he graduated from the HEA Talmud Torah in 1946, God willing, it will be available and accessible for all of our kids, grandkids, and great-grandchildren for years to come!”
Please join us, along with the many others who have made such forward-looking commitments, as a member of the Legacy Society, HEAroes for the Future. You can do so by considering including the HEA in your will, trust, retirement account, or life insurance policy. Contact Carol Abrams at caroslifeandlegacy@gmail.com or the HEA office, (303) 758-9400 for more information. See more HEAroes for the Future members’ stories HERE. If you wish to, please review the Declaration of Commitment form.
