How DonateYourPlot.org Began

It started with a shul that closed.

A once-thriving Jewish community moved, leaving behind a synagogue- and its cemetery section. The shul donated its unused burial plots to the OU.

While processing the donation, we realized something important:

• Thousands of unused plots are owned by members of our community.
• Some people don't realize they have them.
• Others don't know they can do anything with them.
• Selling plots privately is difficult and often restricted—but donating them creates real impact.

We now offer families a simple path to:

• Gift unused plots to the Jewish community.
• Receive a large tax deduction.
• Help ensure affordable and dignified burial for others.

We currently hold a limited number of plots available for subsidized sale. Anyone interested in purchasing should contact us.
