High Holiday Appeal – Help us Help others

Celebrating the Jewish New Year is a time for us to look inward at the blessings in our lives, while also remembering that for some members of our community, this has been a year of loss, financial uncertainty, and physical and emotional challenges. Jewish Family Service of the Lehigh Valley has played an integral role in caring for the Jewish community and the community at large for over 50 years.

By making a financial contribution to Jewish Family Service of the Lehigh Valley’s High Holiday Appeal, you are helping to ensure that clients of JFS have access to essential resources.
