Jewish Federation of Greater Atlanta Fact Sheet

Our Mission

The Jewish Federation of Greater Atlanta transforms Jewish values into tangible deeds. We care for the vulnerable, rescue the imperiled, and lead and strengthen the Jewish community in Atlanta, in Israel, and around the world.

Our Organization

• Federation is a 501(c)3 tax-exempt social service organization.
• Last year, we stewarded over $40 million from the Annual Campaign and Endowment Funds.
• The Annual Campaign funds are distributed to more than 20 local, 16 national, and 7 international partner agencies.
• These partnerships provide funding for needed social services, educational and volunteer programs.
• Many of our partners offer non-sectarian programs and services.

Your company’s financial support as a Corporate Sponsor will enable charitable dollars to be used for program and service delivery rather than administrative or overhead expenses.
