About the Jewish Federation
Jewish Federations of North America protects and enhances the well-being of Jews and Jewish communities in North America, Israel and around the world, striving to realize our core values of chesed (caring and compassion), Torah (Jewish Learning), tikkun olam (repair of the world) and tzedakah (social justice). JFNA, as the central address of the federations, acts upon these values through its philanthropic endeavors, its strategic initiatives, and its collective leadership—in partnership with local communities, national and international agencies—to strengthen Jewish communities, peoplehood, Jewish learning and living, social justice and Klal Yisrael.
