FUND Our Annual Campaign raises funds for our agencies and programs in the community. Through a variety of events, over 100 volunteers and thousands of donors engage the community to support programs for people of all backgrounds in Indianapolis, Israel, and around the world. Our Planned Giving and Endowment Department facilitates the LIFE & LEGACY Program, a community wide effort among 14 partner organizations to promote lifetime giving and build endowments to ensure the future of our community. VOLUNTEER We are the gateway to involvement in the local Jewish community. Volunteers are the backbone of fundraising, oversight, and governance. They participate in our planning and allocations process and serve on our boards and committees. The
GIVE Our Annual Campaign and Planned Giving and Endowment provide resources that enable donors to impact our community. We also welcome partnership opportunities through our corporate sponsorship program. For 112 years, our leaders and thousands of community members have invested in the local Jewish community’s present and future. Ninety-four percent of each Campaign dollar raised goes to programs. Today, Campaign donations and Planned Giving and Endowment gifts continue that tradition, with nearly $12 million distributed to the community in 2015.
