you are our community strengthening

We are stronger together, and we must continue to grow, strengthen, and secure our local Jewish community and provide meaningful ways to be involved. We advocate for Jewish interests and values and foster constructive relationships within the Jewish community and among people of all faiths and cultures to promote a just, democratic, and pluralistic American society.

“Rather than reacting to disasters and emergencies after they occur, Federation is always prepared to jump in in times of need. Through continuously raising money, providing resources, and organizing leadership, Federation can be among the first to respond when a crisis happens. Jewish Federation is vital to our community’s well-being.”
