Let's Talk...
about people who need counseling, those among us with disabilities, the unemployed, patients in the
hospital, families who need emergency assistance, individuals in crises, seniors who deserve dignity and want independence, caring volunteers, and members of our community who don't even have the most basic of needs.
A discussion with the leadership of 100 Namesfr!OO ars can help determine the area of needs that matter the most to you. A bequest to Houston Jewish Family Foundation in your will is perhaps the easiest way to ensure the continuity of your charitable giving.
