Community Security Inc.
(JCSI), a local organization
tasked with protecting the
Jewish community.

SUPPORT FOR ISRAEL
& JEWS AROUND THE
WORLD
Our community’s enduring
connection with Israel remains
central to our identity, and
our support has never been
more important than after
the Oct. 7 terrorist attack in
Israel. Beyond this, Federation’s
support extends to the many
vulnerable individuals in our
global Jewish community,
including tens of thousands
in Ukraine, Russia and other
former Soviet countries.
Federation also works to
strengthen ties between
Israelis and Jews in diaspora
communities through
efforts such as Detroit’s
Partnership2Gether program
with the Central Galilee.

THE ISRAEL EMERGENCY
CAMPAIGN
The success of the 2024
Annual Campaign comes
during a year of historic
challenges for the Jewish
people following Oct. 7, and
especially for the citizens
of Israel. In addition to
our Annual Campaign,
Federation also launched
an Israel Emergency
Campaign to provide critical
humanitarian aid to Israel,
including direct
support to
victims of terror.
“We’ve
received
thousands of
donations to
support that
important
effort, beyond those for

the Annual Campaign,”
notes Steve Ingber,
Federation CEO. “The
outpouring of generosity is
truly extraordinary and a
reflection of Jewish Detroit’s
historic bond with the state
of Israel.”

A HEARTFELT
THANK YOU
The success of the 2024
Annual Campaign sets
a strong foundation for
the future. The Jewish
Federation of Detroit
remains committed to
fostering a vibrant, inclusive
and resilient community.
The record-breaking funds
will not only support
ongoing programs but also
enable new initiatives that
address emerging needs and
opportunities.
“The Jewish
Federation of
Detroit extends
its deepest
appreciation
to every donor
and volunteer
who contributed
to the success of the 2024
Annual Campaign,” says
Federation President Gary
Torgow.
“This record-breaking
campaign demonstrates the
power of community and
the difference we can make
when we come together with
a shared purpose. As we
celebrate this achievement,
we look forward to the
continued growth and
prosperity of the Detroit
Jewish community, and to a
time of peace in Israel and
throughout the world.”
