Adam and Daniel Kaplan Giving

The Kaplan family’s commitment to giving is not simply an act of generosity, it’s a defining principle that has shaped their lives, values, and legacy.

Rooted in a deep sense of responsibility to support meaningful causes, the family has spent decades contributing both time and resources to organizations that strengthen communities, preserve tradition, and uplift those in need, especially children and families facing hardship.

At the foundation of this legacy are Idida and Stewart Kaplan, whose quiet but unwavering dedication to charitable work established the tone for generations to follow. Through consistent involvement in community initiatives, religious institutions, and educational organizations, they demonstrated that giving is not occasional, but a way of life. Their actions instilled a lasting perspective in their family: that meaningful impact comes from sustained effort, compassion, and a genuine commitment to others.

Building on this foundation, Adam S. Kaplan and Daniel E. Kaplan have embraced and expanded the family’s philanthropic mission. Raised in an environment where altruism was modeled daily, they developed a strong sense of purpose around supporting causes that matter. Their work reflects a balance of honoring tradition while engaging with the evolving needs of modern communities.

The Kaplan family has supported a wide range of organizations that reflect their values. Their giving spans religious institutions like Great Neck Synagogue, Chabad Lubavitch, and Congregation Ohr Torah, as well as educational initiatives including Yeshiva Torah Temimah, United Talmudical Academy, and the University of Rochester. They also support organizations such as Ohel Children’s Home and the Diskin Orphan Home, reinforcing a deeply held commitment to caring for vulnerable children, supporting orphaned youth, and providing resources to those who need it most. Cultural and community efforts, including the Lyric Chamber Music Society and the North Shore Mikva, further reflect the breadth of their impact.

This website serves as an extension of the Kaplan family’s mission, a platform dedicated to bringing awareness to the causes that have played an important role in their lives and values. More than a record of contributions, it is an invitation to recognize the importance of giving, to understand the impact of collective support, and to inspire others to participate in meaningful acts of charity and philanthropy.

At its core, the Kaplan family mission is clear: to support organizations that foster education, preserve faith and culture, provide care for those in need, and strengthen the communities they serve. Through continued involvement and advocacy, the Kaplan family remains committed to ensuring that the spirit of giving is not only maintained, but shared, creating a lasting ripple effect that extends far beyond any single contribution.
