Security Update
By Shawn Brokos |
As we gather and heal in the aftermath of the Bondi Beach attack, please remember to keep up apprised of any events that you may be hosting so we can adequately prepare for security.
We connect people to Jewish life in ways that they find meaningful. From day schools to retirement homes and from community centers to synagogues, we support a wide range of programs and institutions for people at all life stages.
We take care of community members experiencing hardships, and adapt to meet ever-changing needs so that each person can live with dignity.
We lead and support efforts that support a more just, secure and inclusive society, where we accept everyone regardless of their backgrounds, beliefs or identity.

Where Your Support Meets Their Strength: Federation’s Role Across Israel
By Jeff Finkelstein |
This week, I’m handing the keyboard off to Brian Eglash, Senior Vice President & Chief Development Officer. Brian writes:
I returned last week from an extraordinarily moving Israel Solidarity Mission with a small group of committed Federation leadership.

Based on the profound feedback from participants, I am confident we achieved exactly that.
