In Fiscal Year 2025, the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia is committed to invest over $71 million into the community locally, in Israel and around the world.
This includes grant allocations, special allocations, Jewish Federation-run programs that benefit community members — like the Mitzvah Food Program — camp scholarships, Israel trips, real estate support.
Out of the over $71 million, the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia awarded more than $7.2 million through the Jewish Community Fund (JCF). This amount does not include the millions being invested through the other Jewish Federation grant processes (including the Bernard and Etta Weinberg Family Fund, Chair’s Venture Fund, Jewish Federation Real Estate Fund, Justin P. Allman President’s Fund, Women of Vision Fund) and special funds.
WHAT IS THE JEWISH COMMUNITY FUND?
The JCF is the core of the Jewish Federation’s Annual Campaign and the main source of unrestricted dollars that go towards areas of greatest need locally, in Israel and elsewhere around the world. These donations are allocated to organizations, initiatives, and programs that support our pillars: Caring for Those in Need Locally, Supporting Israel and Global Jewry, and Securing a Vibrant Jewish Future
