Making Arrangements: Tools and Resources

Suggested Organizations for Charitable Memorial Contributions

Below you’ll find a list of Jewish organizations in the Bay Area. If there are certain causes that the person who died was passionate about, you might consider suggesting donations to that cause in his or her name. If you’d like to know more about any of these organizations, we are happy to discuss them with you. Other than direct contributions to Sinai, we do not benefit from contributions made to any organizations listed below.
