Savannah Jewish Federation has a long history of providing for the needs of our local community, as well as contributing to the education, welfare and support for our world community. The City of Savannah has a very active and diverse Jewish community that has roots going back to 1733. We have so much to offer here - three vibrant synagogues, several avenues for a solid Jewish education, and a community center that rivals those in larger cities.

YJS Book Club
February 21st - 3 pm
Join us the 3rd Sunday of every month at 3 pm at the JEA for discussion, food and friends! Our book for February is Rosa by local author Jonathan Rabb. Jonathan will be joining the discussion. Please email youngjewishsavannah@gmail.com if you are planning to attend!
Rosa takes place in Berlin after World War I. At its center is a historical mystery: Who murdered longtime revolutionary Rosa Luxemburg, imprisoned throughout the war, galvanized into forming the first German Communist Party after the war, and found drowned in the Landwehr Canal in 1919? A Berlin Detective-Inspector and his assistant return to their jobs and to a city ripped open by the ravages of war. They investigate four murders: each woman has the same markings cut into their backs. When Rosa’s corpse is discovered to have the same markings, the case turns political, with the German "political police" now edging in.
