Legacy Society & Endowment Book of Life

The Legacy Society of the Jewish Federation of Cleveland honors donors who ensure the future of our community through current or planned gifts. Membership is open to all donors, regardless of gift size.

Kim & Paul Pesses

Our support will continue and expand the legacy of the supporting foundation that Kim’s parents, Barbara and Stanley Meisel, established in 1999.  Our gift is meant to ensure that the foundation will have the future capacity to continue funding projects for the betterment of the Jewish and general communities.  

Barbara and Stanley instilled in their children not only the importance of giving back to the community, but the privileged responsibility to do so.  We hope that we have imparted the same ethos to our children and are grateful to provide them the opportunity to actively participate in making the world a better place.
