Our 3,000 members come from all backgrounds and lifestyles, bringing a wide range of perspectives and experiences.

OUR MISSION
The Jewish Community Federation works to protect and enhance Jewish life in our community through philanthropy, strategic planning and providing funding for programs that care for those in need; that strengthen and secure the safety of the Jewish people; and that foster Jewish renaissance at home, in Israel and in other Jewish communities.

ANNUAL FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGN
The Federation’s Annual Campaign focuses your donations on the services that are most critical to local and global Jewish vitality and continuity.

We run the gamut from providing aid to Jews in need to connecting our people and resources “on the ground” in Israel to ensuring that our diverse community and its children build a welcoming and meaningful relationship with their heritage and values. Campaign dollars sustain Jewish life, supporting the programs and services that make an impact on the lives of Jews everywhere. Each year, millions of Jews in our five local regions and around the world are helped by our donors. Professional & social networking groups and events allow those with shared values and interests to connect with each other as members of an active and compassionate family. (read less)
