JEWISH CARING
Our Jewish community has a long tradition of
humanitarianism. The broad reach of Federation and
our partners, JDC and the Jewish Agency, assures that
we, as a community, can respond instantly to assist
those in need. In addition to emergency response
work, our network of partners in the San Diego
Jewish community, like Jewish Family Service and
Seacrest Village, works tirelessly to care for those in
need. Together, we provide a safety net upon which
our most vulnerable depend. Under the current
economic challenges faced by our community, many
long-time donors have now found themselves on
the other side of the table. It has been heartening
for many to find the caring hand they had been
supporting for many years is now there for them in
their time of need.
