The Sholom Family
Three entities comprise the Sholom Family.

The Alliance is committed to working with individuals and their families to find the most comfortable and enjoyable living arrangements best suited to the elderly loved one's needs.

Frequently Asked Questions
How can I donate right now?
I'd like to help, but will my small donation really make a difference?
The Sholom Foundation welcomes all gifts, regardless of size. Every gift brings us that much closer to our long-term goal of a $100 million endowment that will support the Sholom Community Alliance facilities and programs long into the future.
What is an Endowment Fund?
An endowment fund is a gift that lasts in perpetuity while the income is used for a specific purpose or, if undesignated, allocated for use by the Sholom Foundation Board of Directors.
Why do some of the Sholom Foundation funds list a specific purpose?
Donors may request their contribution be used for a special use. Funds that provide musical entertainment for residents at the Sholom nursing homes, for religious activities, for building maintenance, or staff training and employee appreciation are examples of some of the designated funds.
