​Legacy Fund of Poale Zedeck

​The purpose of this fund is to secure long-term funding for the maintenance of the shul that will enable Poale Zedeck to continue to function as a vibrant contributor to Jewish life in Pittsburgh for many years to come. Earmarked funds donated to the shul will go directly to the Legacy Fund. The money in this account can be used for special purposes and ideally the principal funds are to remain intact. The Legacy Fund operates under the watchful eye of a board made up of past presidents. Donations made to this fund can be from estates, endowments, life insurance policies, etc. For more information please call the office at 412-421-9786.
