Jewish Communal Fund helps support your charities through intentional philanthropy

Since 1972, in good times and in crisis, Jewish Communal Fund has been there to partner with Jewish philanthropists.
Our donor advised funds can make your charitable giving and intentional philanthropy simpler and more impactful.

Open a new fund and you’ll be eligible for the maximum available tax deduction on your contribution this year, with flexibility to grant funds swiftly and easily.

At JCF you can give on your own timeline, allowing you to be more intentional with your philanthropy. Charitable dollars in your donor advised fund can be invested and grow tax free.

Just by using JCF for your intentional philanthropy, you’ll help to provide $2+ million in annual support for UJA-Federation of New York. In addition, JCF’s endowment supports the welfare of the Jewish community and recently awarded a $500,000 grant to UJA’s Israel Emergency Fund.
