JEWISH FEDERATION OF DELAWAREToday, Tomorrow, and TOGETHER

by Alex

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 urgent,  ongoing humanitarian and 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 local 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 

Including the Federation in your will or trust 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 leaving a legacy empowers you to  complete the work of your heart and helps 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—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 Office
