Norma Shirk, LIFE & LEGACY™ Coordinator, Jewish Federation & Jewish Foundation of Nashville and Middle Tennessee.

I am Norma Shirk, the legacy coordinator for the LIFE & LEGACY™ program in our Jewish community. LIFE & LEGACY™ is an endowment program through which individuals donate funds to support local Jewish organizations. Unlike many endowment programs, LIFE & LEGACY™ donors are able to use their money during their lifetimes to provide for their families and then leave a portion to the organizations they’ve chosen. 
I enjoy working on this program because I love history. History ties the past to the present and gives us guidelines for the future. The LIFE & LEGACY™ program is a promise to support the continuity, the history, of the local Jewish community into the future. If you have questions about Life & Legacy, please contact me at norma@jewishnashville.org.  
The Women's Journey to Israel
The women from our community arrived safely on Friday, October 21st, and have been exploring different parts of Israel and meeting incredible Israeli women along the way. Check the Federation's Instagram and Facebook for daily updates and photos.
GET CONNECTED!
This is a program that makes your teenager's dream of going to Israel come true. Come learn more about this trip, subsidized by the Federation, which will take place June 6 - June 20, 2023. There will be two different information sessions to choose from on November 13th and November 30th. Register to learn more about Get Connected HERE.
For The Sake of Argument
As much as we love Israel it can be difficult at times to talk about it with young family members. Join us for The Sake of Argument, a Zoom event where you can partake in an interactive discussion with "Stories for the Sake of Argument" author Abi Sterne. This event will take place Sunday, November 6, 2022, from 10:00 AM-11:30 AM. Register HERE.
Tzedakah is the cornerstone of our Jewish community. Sometimes we give; sometimes we need to receive. It's okay to ask for help. We are here with confidential resources to lend a hand. Reach out for assistance HERE.
