Families Division
The Families Division, as part of Manhattan Women’s Philanthropy, brings together families with young children in the community. Our programs for families and couples are designed to let you participate in philanthropic, educational, and volunteer events together. We offer an exciting range of programs and events for families with children from birth to school age with unique ways to integrate Jewish values and philanthropy.
Women’s Engagement
Join us for events and programs geared specifically for moms with young children.
Couples Engagement
We invite couples to get together and build community while learning about the importance of our mission.
Families Engagement
Introduce meaningful programming to your family by participating in various opportunities that allow you to interact with UJA-Federation’s beneficiary agencies. Our events provide a great introduction to our work while connecting families across the city. We invite families to participate in mitzvah activities together.
Family Fun Day is the Families Division's annual communitywide event — held at Chelsea Piers, this day features games, prizes, kid-friendly shows, and much more.
For children of bar or bat mitzvah age, learn more about Give a Mitzvah–Do a Mitzvah.
Having a wedding, birthday, or anniversary celebration? Share your Mitzvahs & Milestones, and you’ll have even more to celebrate.
