Mission Statement
The mission of the Jewish Federation of Greater Charlotte is to raise and distribute funds to support and enrich the lives of Jews, locally, nationally, in Israel and worldwide. Through education and community building, the Federation's mission ensures that Jewish values, goals, traditions and connections are preserved for current and future generations.
About This Cause
The Federation's origins can be traced to 1939, when the Charlotte Federation of Jewish Charities was created in response to the dire situation facing European Jews in the years leading to World War II. Often called "The Central Address of the Jewish Community", the Federation is a blend of volunteers, donors and member agencies, devoted to meeting the needs of the Jewish community. Our funds, derived primarily from the annual community campaign, are allocated each year to local, national and overseas agencies and organizations. Other primary Federation functions include community planning, community relations, leadership development and promoting a community understanding of the State of Israel and its people. A variety of programs and events are planned throughout the year, including Bernstein Leadership Group, NEXTGEN Charlotte (Young Adult Division), Women's Philanthropy, Ben-Gurion Society (BGS), Jewish Community Relations Council, Partnership 2Gether, and Teen Israel Scholarships. Our Outreach efforts include Shalom Baby, PJ Library, Newcomer Schmoozes. THE STRENGTH OF A PEOPLE. THE POWER OF COMMUNITY.
