“My husband really struggled to feel part of a Jewish community in Chicago, especially as our life started together, and it is so nice to know now that we are welcomed by the Jewish community in so many ways.”
Community powered, we consider the totality of local and global Jewish needs and how to address them. From generation to generation, we help people connect to Jewish life and values, fueling a dynamic, enduring community that comes together for good.
