Donate to the JCF Annual Giving Campaign

In these challenging times, the ancient and profound Jewish principle of Tikkun Olam – repairing the world – resonates more deeply than ever. It is a call to action, a sacred responsibility to mend what is broken, to bring light where there is darkness, and to strive for a more just and compassionate world. The past year has brought a profound array of emotions for the Jewish community, marked by ongoing conflicts in Israel and a distressing rise of antisemitism globally and right here at home. Amidst these trials, our collective commitment to a peaceful and vibrant future for Israel and for Jewish communities worldwide becomes paramount, guided by the enduring spirit of hope, or Tikva.

Each year, with the help of your generous donation to the Annual Giving Campaign, we have the chance to embody Tikkun Olam, bringing moments of peace, hope, and critical support to our brethren around the world, nationally, and locally. Your support directly helps us respond to the immediate needs arising from conflict, combat hatred, and provide crucial assistance and moments of calm amidst chaos, actively working to mend what is broken in our world.

All of this vital work, addressing the most pressing issues facing our community today and fulfilling our shared responsibility for Tikkun Olam, would be impossible without you and your kindness. We are proud to say that one hundred percent of your donations go directly to these very worthy causes, making a world of difference when it is needed most.

Please join the JCF board in hoping for a peaceful and spirited world, and in actively working to build it, with whatever you can give.

Each year, with the help of your generous donation to the JCF Annual Giving Campaign, we have the chance to bring these moments of peace and hope to our brethren around the world, nationally, and locally, as strife, natural disasters, and poverty, continue to plague communities across the globe and families struggle to make ends meet.

For example, last year, the JCF Annual Giving Campaign was able to donate to such worthy causes, as three major hospital systems in Israel, tasked with caring for those injured in the attacks of Oct. 7 and those in the subsequent military operations. We also continued donating to groups helping with relief in the Ukraine and during natural disasters in the United States, providing relief and some moments of calmness amidst the chaos. Locally, we provided funding for food banks and libraries, providing basic amenities and brief moments of peace for those who need a little extra help.

All of this would be impossible without you and your kindness. One hundred percent of your donations go directly to these very worthy causes.

Please join me and the board in hoping for a peaceful and spirited world with whatever you can give.

Causes we have donated to in recent years: Soroka Medical Center; Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society; Hadassah Crisis Fund; DROR Foundation; The Anti-Defamation League; Southern Poverty Law Center; Food Bank of the Southern Tier; Local food banks in The Southern Tier NY, The Northern Tier PA; and more!
