Savannah Jewish Federation: It Works for our Community
Last year, the campaign achievement was $1,435,560. In addition, SJF allocated $57,000 to local
agencies for special projects from its budget savings. That money was available only one time!
We need to raise an additional 15% to meet our goal of $1,600,000.
We want you to know why!
