e) 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
