The Jewish Federation of Cleveland is the backbone of our great Jewish community. As lifelong Clevelanders, we have witnessed the Federation caring for Jews in need and helping ensure Jewish continuity here and throughout the world. As active volunteers in our community, we have been fortunate to see many of the programs here, in Israel and other countries that have informed our decision to permanently endow our annual contribution to the Campaign for Jewish Needs. By creating this endowment, we are helping the Federation sustain its mission and keep our family involved in the necessary work to be done by Federation in the future. We have loved serving and being part of this community and are excited to join the others that have come before us, paving the way to keeping our community strong!
