Shape Philanthropic Plans That Endure

The Center aims to help donors build a legacy that reflects who they are, is enduring, and ultimately results in greater satisfaction. When they collaborate with the Center, Foundation donors can expect discretion, expertise and the highest level of professional assistance with:
- Identifying personal areas of interest and learning about relevant funding opportunities
- Engaging more strategically in family philanthropy
- Addressing intergenerational issues related to family giving
- Interacting with like-minded funders to inform and leverage the impact of their giving
- Visiting and meeting with leadership of selected and vetted nonprofit organizations and programs
Can Effective Philanthropy Be Designed? We Say Yes.
The Jewish Community Foundation, the largest manager of charitable assets and planned-giving solutions for Los Angeles Jewish philanthropists, conceived the Center for Designed Philanthropy in 2011 to help donors craft and shape their own personal philanthropic strategies. Drawing upon The Foundation's respected reputation and nearly 60 years of experience, the Center is well positioned to provide donors with insight into community needs, resources and a myriad of giving opportunities. The ultimate goal of The Foundation and its donors is to make a positive impact on the Los Angeles community and in Israel.
