Jewish Community Federation of Richmond

The Jewish Community Federation of Richmond is the central fundraising, community planning, leadership development, and outreach arm of the Jewish Community.

The Federation is guided by professional and lay leaders who are grounded in the traditional Jewish values of Tzedakah, deeds of loving kindness, justice and Tikkun Olam, which call upon us to rescue the imperiled, care for the vulnerable and help assure the vitality of Jewish life in Richmond, in Israel and around the world.

The Federation fosters collaboration among synagogues, agencies, schools and organizations through its fundraising, planning, community relations and leadership development programs. The community’s annual UJA/Jewish Welfare Fund Campaign and the subsequent allocations process fall under the auspices of the Federation to ensure the provision of vital social, educational, cultural and recreational services for the entire community. The Federation facilitates communal priority setting and collaborative efforts to address local needs; publishes The Reflector, a fortnightly newspaper communicating local, regional, national and international news and features of interest to the Jewish community; maintains this web site; and maintains the central community calendar of events and activities.

Guided by the findings of its strategic planning, the Federation is working with its communal partners to ensure that the physical facility needs of the growing Richmond Jewish community are met in a timely and fiscally responsible manner. The goal is to provide modern, state-of-the-art facilities that will complement our vision of a warm, vibrant and inclusive Jewish community.
