Women's giving now accounts for over 16% of our Annual Campaign. By giving a gift in your own name, you embrace an identity that is distinct and independent from that of another family member. Pledge online and help JUF serve millions of women around the world.
Why Give? Because...
We are individuals. We have the ability to demonstrate our personal commitment to Jewish life by making our own pledge. We are asserting ourselves more in business, the professions, the arts and the voting booth and should not abdicate responsibility in the vital area of philanthropy.
We have a voice. With a growing communal power comes responsibility - increased individual giving complements an increased influence around major communal tables.
Your individual and our collective women’s gifts matter. Almost 14 million dollars from women's individual gifts play a major role in meeting the needs of Jews locally, in Israel and throughout the world.
Lion of Judah Endowment
Today's Jewish women can perpetuate their own names and their commitment to Jewish continuity by establishing a Lion of Judah Endowment (LOJE), a fund that permanently endows a woman's annual gift to the Jewish United Fund Campaign.
Why should I establish a LOJE?
Locally, LOJE funds will enhance the Jewish people through education and other community programs that bond us to our Jewish heritage. Worldwide, endowment funds will help Israel continue to flourish as a home and safe haven for Jews. By providing a permanent endowment through a LOJE, you will help JUF prepare both for needs we can anticipate and for unexpected occurrences.Click here to learn more...
We have a choice. We can either hope that someone else will do it OR we can ensure the vitality of world Jewry. Our individual gift decides the vibrancy of the community in which we – and our children and grandchildren – live.
