Levinson’s owes a great deal of our continued success to our ability to change with the times while maintaining core values. We place an emphasis on high quality of service and dignity shown to all families. Levinson’s also navigates the delicate balance of incorporating technological and societal changes into Jewish funeral practices that are thousands of years old. In addition, a few years ago, Levinson’s reached out to the families we serve in the Columbia area by opening an arrangement center near the Mall in Columbia.
In addition to our commitment to the families we serve, Levinson’s is also consistently listed as one of the Baltimore Sun’s Top Workplaces. Many team members who are not part of the Levinson family have been here 20-25 years and find the work environment to be collegial and supportive.
As the Jewish funeral home in Baltimore, Sol Levinson & Bros. is aware of our responsibility to the community. We emphasize this commitment to the community by supporting area synagogues, organizations, schools, and more. Levinson’s also partners with The Associated, Jewish Community Services, LifeBridge Health, Jewish Volunteer Connection and area hospice organizations on many outreach programs. Levinson’s ongoing resources to families and community members in Baltimore and Columbia include bereavement support groups, bereavement libraries, educational programs, grief support programs, and much more.
In honor of Sol Levinson & Bros. 125 th anniversary, we are proud to be launching the Sol Levinson & Bros. 125 th Anniversary Volunteer Initiative. This project is dedicated to the memory of Burton H. Levinson, a third generation member of the Levinson family, who passed away in 2015. Burton taught that the most important thing to keep in mind in the funeral business is “do the right thing.” In keeping with this, we want to expand our dedication to the community, with the goals of Action, Caring, and Tikkun olam (repairing the world).
This coming year Levinson’s will have a presence at several major Jewish festivals in Baltimore and Columbia, with a booth where families can participate in a social action project. Members of the Levinson’s team will be there to help facilitate the projects and answer any questions people might have, but mostly to show the family’s commitment to giving back to the community and to the Jewish value of tikkun olam. Levinson’s greatly values the partnership of Jewish Volunteer Connection and The Associated in making this new project possible.
Sol Levinson & Bros. looks forward to serving the community for generations to come.
