Turn Your Unused Burial Plots into a Gift for the Jewish Community

Help make kosher burials more affordable & support Chevra Kadishas.

An initiative of the Orthodox Union, the Orthodox Jewish umbrella organization, serving and strengthening the Jewish community for over 125 years.

How it Works

Donating a burial plot isn't like donating an old car- it involves cemetery rules, plot societies, and differing regulations. We handle all the complexity for you.

1. Tell us about your plots

Fill out a short form with your name, contact info, and cemetery details.

2. We reach out

The OU will contact the cemetery and handle ownership transfer.

3. You receive a tax-deductible receipt

The IRS allows donors to assign a fair-market value up to $5,000 per plot, without an appraisal.
