Annual Community Campaign for Jewish Needs
Our Annual Campaign addresses the most pressing needs of the Jewish Community and issues at a moment's notice. The Annual Campaign that has been the glue that has held our Berkshire Jewish Community together for over 75 years, allowing us to help Jews in our community and in Jewish communities around the world. With your help, we can continue to do so for the next 75.
Because of generous community members' contributions to our annual campaign, shelter is given, meals are provided, and medicine is delivered. Hardship is changed into hope. Our work together creates vibrant Jewish life, engages the next generation, and reinvigorates Judaism right here in the Berkshires, in Israel, and in Jewish communities around the world.
There is no better time to get involved because, through the Jewish Federation of the Berkshires, you can make a world of difference and deliver the gift of hope to those in need. Together, we are here for each other and for the Jewish People.
The Annual Campaign is at the core of what we do. Watch to find out more.
