- Legacy Giving Stories
Annual distributions from the Joseph Teichman Memorial Fund, established in December 1996 by Marion Weinreb to memorialize her uncle, ensure that children, families, and seniors who turn to JFCS when faced with personal crisis receive the direct and practical assistance they require to overcome adversity and re-establish self-sufficiency.
Joseph Teichman was a Polish refugee who constantly helped others. His niece, Marion Weinreb, remembers him as a “mensch” who was always kind and considerate and set a positive example through his everyday actions, such as volunteering as a crossing guard at the local school.
Shared from the Heart
I like the idea of perpetual funds. You can add to them and they will continue to grow as living legacies.—Marion Weinreb
