THE IMPORTANCE OF UJA WOMEN’S PHILANTHROPY

Women comprise the largest and most influential group of charitable donors in our community, and their impact is only growing. Every year, women’s charitable giving accounts for over $14.5 million donated to UJA’s Annual Campaign. Women’s gifts are a driving force behind building a strong Jewish community—addressing the most pressing issues of today while securing our community’s future.

They support UJA’s work in five key areas, including: fighting poverty; countering antisemitism and improving community security; growing Jewish education; strengthening Jewish identity; and supporting Israel and global Jewish communities in need.

UJA's Annual Campaign raises approximately $64 million each year, of which more than $14.5 million comes from women. The extent of this impact is extraordinary, as a gift to UJA strengthens our network of more than 100 organizations that cover the following areas:

Fighting poverty

Countering antisemitism and improving community security

Growing Jewish education

Strengthening Jewish identity

Supporting Israel and global Jewish communities in need
