INFO FOR
INDIVIDUALS

Weโ€™re here for you, too. Weโ€™ve been part of so many stories for generations.

Maybe we helped your grandparents settle in this country. Or you had the time of your life at a UJA-supported camp. Maybe we helped when your family was facing a challenge too difficult to bear alone.

Weโ€™ll always be there for you. Let us point you in the right direction and help your search.
