About UJA Federation of Greenwich

THE UJA FEDERATION OF GREENWICH IS COMMITTED TO THE PRESERVATION, ENRICHMENT AND CONTINUITY OF THE JEWISH PEOPLE AND TO THE ENHANCEMENT OF JEWISH LIFE IN GREENWICH, NORTH AMERICA, ISRAEL, AND THROUGHOUT THE WORLD. CENTRAL TO OUR MISSION IS A COMMUNITY BUILT ON THE JEWISH IDEAL OF TZEDAKAH: CHARITY, RIGHTEOUSNESS AND SOCIAL JUSTICE. IT IS OUR SUPPORT FOR LOCAL PROGRAMS, AGENCIES AND THE HUMANITARIAN WORK OF THE UNITED JEWISH COMMUNITIES, THAT ENRICHES LOCAL, NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL JEWISH LIFE. BELIEVING THAT EACH JEW IS RESPONSIBLE ONE FOR ANOTHER, WE HAVE A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY TO STRENGTHEN OUR JEWISH COMMUNITY, TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF LIFE AND TO BRING DIGNITY TO ALL PEOPLE. WE BELIEVE THAT IT IS OUR OBLIGATION TO IDENTIFY, EDUCATE AND ENCOURAGE MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY TO ASSUME LEADERSHIP ROLES AND TO SERVE AS ROLE MODELS FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS. TO ACCOMPLISH THIS MISSION, WE ARE BUILDING A VIBRANT AND INCLUSIVE JEWISH COMMUNITY.
