EMPOWERING YOU
In response to our community’s giving preferences, the Annual Campaign has transitioned to a donor-centric campaign. This empowers YOU to choose how you would like to be solicited, make your gift, and be recognized.
Donors may give their annual gift as an individual or jointly as a household. Your total campaign gift, whether it be an individual or household donation, qualifies for one of the campaign giving levels.
2024 ANNUAL CAMPAIGN
Through the Greensboro Jewish Federation, you can do good that goes everywhere. We work to repair the world and to keep Jewish life thriving, and we could not do it without support from people like you. It is both a privilege and a responsibility to repair our world and strengthen Jewish life.
It’s great to know that when you support the Greensboro Jewish Federation's Annual Campaign the good you do keeps going. And, going.
With your gift, you help build, sustain and secure our Jewish community and institutions. You feed, comfort, & shelter the vulnerable, foster community & inspire new generations – here in Greensboro, in Israel, Ukraine, and 70 countries worldwide.
Matching Contributions:
Increase your 2024 contribution by a minimum of $100 over your 2023 contribution and The Leon Levine Foundation will match your supplemental donation.
Please join us by making a gift to our Annual Campaign. Together, we put into action our shared values of tzedakah, generosity and compassion. Together, we do good that goes everywhere.
MAKING A DIFFERENCE AROUND THE WORLD.
Humanitarian support for Jews around the world is also a core value of the Federation. Through partner agencies, Jewish Federations of North America (JFNA), The Jewish Agency for Israel (JAFI), and the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee (JDC), Greensboro stands strong as a Jewish community nationally and touches Jewish lives around the globe.
