Word on the Street
"It wasn’t until I was out in the world on my own that I began to understand that having a Jewish community is not automatic, and it’s not everywhere. I drifted away somewhat from Jewish community, until I began working at the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia in 2018. Since then, I’ve learned a few things."
Young families are being supported by the Jewish Federation through Jewish Day School scholarships, after-school programming and more.
