Leave a Legacy with The Foundation of the Greater Miami Jewish Federation

“My parents set an example that, as Jews, it is our responsibility to support our Jewish community both locally and abroad, especially Israel,” said Diane Wander, whose parents, Sidney and Lorraine Cooperman, z”l, created a legacy to the Jewish community with a generous gift in their will to Federation. Both Sidney and Lorraine supported the Annual Federation/UJA Campaign for more than 30 years, and by leaving a legacy gift in their will, they became Forever Pacesetters and Lorraine a Forever Lion. Click here to read about the Coopermans and their commitment to the Jewish people in The Book of Life, an online album containing stories and photos of donors who have generously included Federation and/or any of our Create a Jewish Legacy partner organizations in their estate plan. If you would like to have your story added to the Book of Life, please contact us at [email protected].
