Donors are the heart and soul of Jewish Family & Child Service. Your assistance provides stability, and hope for hundreds of people each year — right here at home — and makes possible an array of programs and services that help individuals and families make the most of their relationships, their potential, and their lives. Every dollar donated and every hour of time volunteered translates to direct service for family, friends, and neighbors who struggle with critical issues related to aging, disability, and poverty.

As a nonprofit organization, JFCS depends on the support of generous foundations, committed community organizations, dedicated volunteers, businesses, and caring individuals like you. By making a tax-deductible donation to JFCS, you make it possible for us to care for those in need. To make a difference today, donate now.
