Each year Jewish Federation funds a variety of local and overseas programs that support the mission of sustaining and enhancing Jewish life at home and around the world. Thanks to the generosity of the community, Jewish Federation raised more than $5 million during its 2015 community campaign, and will in turn provide millions of dollars in program funding during the year ahead.
