Our Activities

A comprehensive approach to preserving Jewish heritage and promoting social welfare.

—

The Jewish Heritage Foundation conducts a variety of activities that collectively promote social welfare and serve the broader community. Our work includes community educational programs, civic engagement and voter education, community service and cultural preservation projects, youth and leadership development, and public policy research and advocacy.

Educational programs, including lectures, workshops, and panel discussions on Jewish history, heritage, and civic responsibility, are coordinated by our volunteer board members in collaboration with invited scholars and educators. These are held in community centers, schools, places of worship, libraries, and online platforms that are open and accessible to the general public.

Our civic engagement efforts provide nonpartisan voter education materials, explain ballot initiatives that impact religious freedom and community development, and host forums to which all candidates are invited. By promoting informed civic participation, these efforts directly further our mission of enhancing social welfare.
