JEWISH FEDERATION OF EASTERN CONNECTICUT

Resources

It’s simple: We identify our community’s most pressing challenges and greatest opportunities in order to help Jews in need and ensure our Jewish future. We educate our youth, connect our seniors and assist those most at risk. We unite our community and serve through Tikkun Olam. As a result, we have made a lasting impact in Eastern Connecticut, Israel and more than 70 countries around the world for decades. Take a look at what we do and how you can get involved—your Federation Family welcomes our heroes.
