Jewish Federation of Delaware . . . Powered by Community

Jewish tradition teaches us to care for one another. In our community we have shown—time and again—that our caring is boundless.

Jewish Federation of Delaware protects and enhances the well-being of Jews worldwide through the values of tikkun olam (repairing the world), tzedakah (charity and social justice), and Torah (Jewish learning).

TODAY…The Annual Campaign

A gift to the Federation’s Annual Campaign provides unrestricted funds that provide a lifeline to our Jewish community for meeting humanitarian, social service, educational, and community building needs. These gifts are the predominant source of funding for the Federation’s operations and provide critical support to our five beneficiary agencies; the Albert Einstein Academy, Jewish Family Services of Delaware, the Kutz Senior Living Campus, Siegel JCC, and University of Delaware Hillel; as well as our overseas partners, the Jewish Agency for Israel, American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee (JDC), and World ORT. Doing so allows us to direct the funds in partnership with those agencies where the funds are most urgently needed. 

One gift to the Annual Campaign makes it possible for us to simultaneously help our most vulnerable neighbors, build our Jewish community, stand with the people of Israel, and reach out to our Jewish family around the world. By allocating your philanthropic dollars to ensure the greatest impact, we have earned a reputation as being a trusted and effective charity that makes a real difference.

TOMORROW…Leaving a Jewish Legacy

A Jewish Legacy is an opportunity to ensure that you will be remembered and that your passion and your values will continue when you are no longer here. It also serves as an example to your loved ones that you believe it is important to support the Jewish community. The act of creating a legacy empowers you to complete the work of your heart. By leaving a legacy, you will help to ensure that the traditions and institutions important to you remain vibrant for future generations.

Passing our values from generation to generation is one

of the most fundamental tenets of Judaism. Our parents and grandparents built this Jewish community. That is their legacy. Securing its future financial strength will be our legacy.

TODAY and TOMORROW…

We Grow Stronger TOGETHER As One.

There is much to do. We invite you to take advantage of this opportunity to be part of a caring community that gives back. TOGETHER, we can accomplish what no one individual could do on his or her own. Repairing the world and building community is something we can all celebrate.

L’Shalom,

Seth J. Katzen, President & Chief Executive Officer
