In addition to our most important and continuing task of burying indigent Jews, HFBA has the further goal of ensuring that there is a dignified record of their identity and existence in this world.

HFBA's Millennium Capital Campaign stresses the Jewish community's responsibility to renew, restore, and rebuild our historic cemeteries.

• Renew the commitment, through the Leave Your Mark Campaign, of providing a marker for a grave that never had one
• Restore a damaged or weathered monument
• Rebuild an aged or damaged foundation and reset a monument

Cemetery Clean-Up Project

Through the efforts of volunteer groups, HFBA continues its ongoing Cemetery Clean-up Project, where schools, synagogues, camps, and other community groups visit Silver Lake Cemetery to help with cemetery maintenance by raking leaves and clearing debris.

For information on any of these projects, or to arrange an outing for your group to visit Silver Lake Cemetery or Mount Richmond Cemetery, please call our office at (212) 239-1662 or e-mail Andrew Parver, HFBA's Director of Education and Outreach at aparver@hebrewfreeburial.org.
