BUILDING, SUSTAINING & SECURING OUR JEWISH COMMUNITY.

 

From right here at home, your gift to the Greensboro Jewish Federation's Annual Campaign helps fill our Jewish summer camps and Bnai Shalom Day School. It feeds the hungry and comforts the sick. And, it fosters community and belonging on our local college campuses.

But your gift reaches beyond that.

Each year, the Greensboro Jewish Federation also invests Annual Campaign dollars to our global partners to strengthen the foundation that supports our community around the world.

It is your gift that enables us to respond and mobilize immediately in times of crisis – anywhere in the world.

WOMEN'S PHILANTHROPY

 

Greensboro’s Lion of Judah program began during a 1983 national UJA/Federation Women’s Mission to Prague and Israel. Inspired by this journey, many Greensboro women pledged $5,000 each, launching the city's involvement in the national Federation Lion of Judah “sisterhood.” Since then, the program has flourished, growing to over 90 proud Lions who are active in various philanthropic efforts at the Federation.

2025 CAMPAIGN CO-CHAIRS

  • GARY BARGEBUHR

Gary has served on the allocations committee, been a trustee to the board, and most recently co-chaired the 2024 Annual Campaign. This year, he will serve again – joined by his wife, Laurie. “As a couple we are embracing this new togetherness as an opportunity to work side by side in an organization that is important to us and to this community. We look forward to this journey and hope you will join us.”

  • Laurie Bargebuhr

    As a wife and mother of two, Laurie’s had the opportunity to be part of a number of fund raising initiatives, from the building of the Montessori School library and co-chairing an endowment campaign, to running girl’s lacrosse tournaments.
