How to contribute to Jewish Federation of Greater Toledo/Toledo Jewish Community Foundation

• Donate online at www.jewishtoledo.org • Call Tina Stieben at 419-724-0371 or email her at [email protected] for stock or IRA gifts • Donate or pay by mail by sending your pledge cards and payments to: Jewish Federation of Greater Toledo, Attention: Kathy Sherion, 6465 Sylvania Avenue, Sylvania, Ohio 43560 Please note that checks need to be post-marked by December 31, 2019 for a 2019 tax deduction.

Gift Policy Statement Regarding Donations of Stock Stock Payments

Jewish Federation of Greater Toledo is happy to accept donations of stock as payment for pledges made to the Annual Campaign or to the Toledo Jewish Community Foundation. Stock gifts need to be received by 12 p.m. (noon) on December 26, 2019 in order to sell before the market closes. Please note the brokerage firm may charge a transaction fee up to an amount of $100.00.

It should be noted that our procedure is as follows for accepting stock: Whenever a gift of stock is made, the donor receives a confirmation letter within 10 business days of receiving the check that the gift was made. Normally upon consultation with financial professionals, this is the date used when valuing the gift for IRS tax purposes.

After being notified that a gift of stock has been made, either from the donor or a stockbroker, the stock will then transfer into the Federation’s/Foundation’s account and the stock will be sold by the next business day after receipt into the account. The net pro- ceeds of the sale of stock will be applied against any outstanding pledges for the individual. The donor will be notified, in writing, what the net proceeds were on the same written notice mentioned above.

To expedite this process, it is extremely helpful if the donor, his/her stockbroker or financial advisor notifies Federation's Depart- ment of Finance verbally or through email when a gift of stock is made. By following this procedure, the timing between the gift being made and the sale of the stock is greatly reduced.

Please contact Tina Stieben, CFO, at [email protected] or 419-724-0371, or 419-346-5397 (cell) for further assistance.

IRA Charitable Rollover Checks

Jewish Federation of Greater Toledo is also happy to be able to accept IRA Charitable Rollover contributions to the Annual Cam- paign. Please contact Tina Stieben at 419-724-0371, Wendy Goldstein 419-724-0360 or Arleen R. Levine if you are making pro- visions with your financial advisor to donate with an IRA Charitable Rollover check; this way we can ensure that the check is pro- cessed timely and that you receive the appropriate tax letter. For further information on the eligibility to contribute using your IRA Charitable Rollover, please consult your financial advisor.

Personal Credit Card & Check Payment Deadlines

Credit card payment information must be received at Jewish Federation of Greater Toledo by 12 Noon Friday, December 27, 2019 for 2019 tax purposes. As stated above, payments by check need only be postmarked December 31, 2019 for 2019 tax purposes, or you can make payments online at www.JewishToledo.org by midnight on December 31, 2019. Please note that our offices will be closed Wednesday, December 25, 2019 in observance of Christmas holiday.

Tuesday, November 12 4 – 6 p.m. Sekach Building Plan to grab a bite after (restaurant location to be determined)

One of the most important factors in healing from grief is the support of other people. Having support from your family, friends, or a community of others who have also experienced grief allows you to feel that someone else “gets it.” Being able to share your story or your feelings is vital to the healing process.

We are trying to pay attention to this important stuff at JFS. We understand that there’s not a lot of support in the Toledo area, where our faith and values are very similar. We also understand that it might feel intimidating to join a bereavement group. You can always attend our support group and just listen. You won’t be asked to speak until you’re comfortable and you might feel better just being surrounded by a community (your community) with some understanding of the depth of your grief. So, come join us. Help us build this support.
