A Designated Fund is a tax-deductible gift that supports a specific organization, program, or project. This fund can be established and managed by the Jewish Community Foundation of Greater Mercer and can make payments to the charity of your choice on a schedule decided by you.

With a fund such as this, payments can extend far past your lifetime and can be made in memory or in honor of a loved one. Your designated fund allows you to create a permanent legacy and support the specific causes that mean the most to you. It will help you optimize your financial, tax and estate plans-even generate lifetime income-while building permanent resources for the community.

PACE and LOJE are designated funds that support the Jewish Federation of Princeton Mercer Bucks. They are permanent funds dedicated to perpetuating an annual campaign gift to the Jewish Federation of Princeton Mercer Bucks beyond the donor’s lifetime. A PACE or LOJE gift offers tax benefits for you and/or your estate gift and is invested and managed by the Foundation for long term growth.
