What will your Legacy say about you?
CJDS students are the future leaders of our community. In 2014, CJDS was selected as one of 15 organizations in Chicago to participate in the Create a Jewish Legacy program. Funded by the Harold Grinspoon Foundation, an anonymous foundation and managed by the Jewish Federation of Metropolitan Chicago, the Create a Jewish Legacy program plants the seeds for future generations.

-
invests in securing a multi-denominational community to sustain Jewish life
-
ensures access to all families who truly want Jewish education, regardless of their financial ability
-
advances educational excellence and professional development across integrated learning

-
Bequest in a will

Words from CJDS Legacy Donors
"We would hope this school will continue to grow, thrive and provide other children with the same values and love of Israel long after we are gone. To this end we have made a legacy commitment and signed a declaration of intent to help ensure its continuation. We hope you will join us!"
-Marshall Hartman (z"l) and Pat Hartman, CJDS Grandparents
