Your gift to BBYO not only enriches the lives of Jewish teens in your region, but in more than 725 BBYO communities worldwide.

Your donation makes a difference in helping us to engage and inspire more Jewish teens—while keeping our experiences affordable and accessible.

MAKE A PLANNED GIFT

Making a planned gift allows you to align overall your financial needs with your philanthropic goals, ensuring your legacy for generations while supporting the long-term growth of an organization you care deeply about. Planned gifts and endowments established many years ago are still helping to sustain our Movement today.

Planned gifts can be made from your will, charitable trust, estate plan, retirement plan, or even life insurance policy. These gifts may support or launch a special BBYO initiative, benefit your local BBYO community, or help to strengthen BBYO in the areas where it is needed most. Planned gifts may take the form of:

  • Bequests (easily added to your will or estate plan)
  • A charitable gift annuity
  • A gift of appreciated assets
  • A gift of real estate
  • A designation in your retirement plan
  • And more

BBYO’s legal name for planned giving is B’nai Brith Youth Organization. Our EIN (tax ID) number is 31-1794932, and our legal address is 800 Eighth Street NW, Washington, D.C. 20001. To learn more about the BBYO Legacy Society and making a planned gift to BBYO, please contact us at [email protected]. If you already have provisions for BBYO in your planned giving, make sure to let us know so that we can recognize your generosity appropriately throughout the year.

"BBYO has taught me the importance of Tikkun Olam and how our actions can strengthen our local and global community. Making the world a better place is the heart and soul of BBYO."

– Estee M., BBYO Teen, Michigan Region
