How can I contribute?

There are many ways to contribute to the work we do. We can help you find the best way for you.

Tributes & Memorial Gifts

For special occasions, or to memorialize a loved one, tributes honor those close to you and help make a difference. We send a card to the honoree, and tributes are listed in the monthly Program Guide.

Giving Societies

President's Cabinet, Women's Division's Lions of Judah, and Pomegranates give at higher levels, and are dedicated to continuity, connectivity and a thriving future locally, in Israel, and for the Jewish people.

Endowments & Legacies

A planned gift can benefit you and your loved ones, and stands as a lasting reminder to your children and succeeding generations of the values and charitable works that are most important to you.

Donations of Securities

A donation of stock is a simple, efficient and effective way to support Jewish Federation. We are happy to work with you to ensure that your gift reflects your wishes and support of our community.

Vehicle Donations

Avoid the hassles of selling a vehicle. 100% tax-deductible, and it's an easy way to give. Just fill out the online donation form or pick up the phone.

Sponsorships Opportunities

Corporate sponsorship options are flexible and can be tailored for each sponsor. You receive the greatest possible tangible returns on your dollars.

Employer Matching Gifts

Many companies match employees’ donations to Federations. You could double the impact of your gift.

Sponsor a Flag

For one week every year, 125 flags fly along State Street, from the Waterfront through Downtown. We invite you to participate and show your pride by sponsoring a flag.
