What is The L'Chayim Fund?
The L’Chayim Fund is a
registered 501(c)3 Federal tax exempt fund.
It was established in 1989 with an initial gift from the will of
Rabbi Levenson’s mom. She and he had decided that Jewish education
was in need of such a fund to help Jewish students learn in schools
and activities that would raise their awareness of the magnificent
heritage that is theirs.
Since
its start, The L’Chayim Fund has given scholarships to many
individuals who have taken educational trips to Israel, to Temple
youth group conferences and conventions, and to Jewish camps and
day schools.
The largest grant enabled a Jewish medical student from Russia to
complete his training, so that now he is happily married to a nice
Jewish doctor and raising kids here in the Boston area. In
addition, The L’Chayim Fund has benefited Jewish institutions such
as Temples and Synagogues, Community Service agencies, and
religious groups of all denominations.
In Israel, The L’Chayim Fund has contributed funds that aid the
aged and the poor, as well as non-governmental agencies that bring
Jewish and non-Jewish Israelis together to work on mutually
beneficial projects.
In short, The L’Chayim Fund actively, yet modestly, supports many
Jewish efforts to “Repair the World,” to keep our Jewish people
alive and healthy through educational assistance to individuals and
institutions so they can fulfill themselves in God’s
world.
