Dedicate a sefer
A sefer is a legacy that learns on forever
In honor · in memory · l’ilui nishmas
Every Kesser Shem Tov sefer carries the name of the family who made it possible — on the title page and in a dedication at the front of every copy, for as long as it is learned. Dedicate a whole sefer as your family’s edition, join as a partner, or place a dedication page in honor or in memory of a loved one.
