JFS often has programs that require special donor funding in order to
proceed. These programs often need less than $5,000 but can make a very
meaningful difference in our community. Examples of programs that can
take place with donor support include:
- Support groups for
children with siblings with special needs.
- Assisting a family dealing with a child’s serious mental illness
- Supporting
specialized training for clinicians to expand their skills, on any
topic from infant development to geriatrics.
- Feeding the hungry –
there are many local Jewish families and elderly citizens who can
temporarily benefit from our kosher food bank
- Helping a disabled adult to afford specialty transportation.
- Contributing to an
emergency assistance fund for needy men
- Enabling families with an autistic child to access respite care
- Funding programming for former refugees who still need help adjusting
to life in the United States.
- Helping frail
elderly to benefit from a special fund that helps pay for
prescriptions they cannot afford.
