Samuel and Elizabeth Bailey Fund

Allison Nelson and Tom Bailey established the Samuel and Elizabeth Bailey Fund in honor of their son, Sam, and their daughter, Ellie. Together, the four  hope to make a lasting difference in the lives of children and families in need of direct assistance from Jewish Family and Children’s Services–today and in the generations to come.

Each year Allison, Tom, Sam and Ellie will review JFCS’ various programs together and decide as a family where to direct their fund’s annual distributions. Through their ongoing charitable-giving decisions, they look forward to having the satisfaction of seeing the fund continue to grow and provide critical and immediate help to people in need.

By including Sam and Ellie in the family’s tzedakah, Allison and Tom seek to develop in their children strong values and a lifelong understanding of the community’s needs.
