Be Part of a Movement to Make Your Mark on our Jewish Community

Women’s Philanthropy is for any community member who identifies as a woman and wants to make a difference in our local and global Jewish community. We are change-makers, caregivers, professionals, stay-at-home moms and empty nesters, mothers and daughters, volunteers.


Why Get Involved with Women’s Philanthropy?

Women make up roughly half of the general population, and locally we raise almost 50 percent of the philanthropic dollars to our Jewish Federation. What kind of a difference do you want to make?

Getting involved with Women’s Philanthropy will allow you to participate in activities designed specifically for you as women in the 21st century, no matter your stage of life. Joined by shared values, we will focus on philanthropy, volunteerism, events and travel experiences that will unite us on our common journey toward a better future.

The Power of Your Donation

There are so many reasons to consider making a philanthropic commitment of any amount as a woman in your own name. Doing so provides you with your own identity as an investor in our Jewish community. It allows you to stand up and say, “Hineni,” I am here. And it shows your family that you care.

How Do You Want to be Remembered?

Lions of Judah are women who make individual gifts of $6,000 or more to Jewish Federation’s Annual Campaign. With a minimum gift of $120,000, you can perpetuate your gift and create a Lion of Judah Endowment Fund in your name. The annual spendable portion of the Lion of Judah Endowment Fund is used each year to make a grant to Federation’s Annual Campaign in your name FOREVER.

Did you know that you don’t have to be a Lion of Judah to make a profound difference on our community long into the future?
