The
Jewish Federation of Greater New Bedford is the central address of the
Jewish community in New Bedford and its surrounding communities.
It is a voluntary body created and maintained by volunteers who
determine its philosophy, objectives and programs. The Federation
is a trusteeship which acts on behalf of its membership who, by
definition, is anyone who is a contributor. Day-to-day operations
are overseen by the Executive Director, Olga Yorish.
The
Federation Campaign is one important way in which an individual may
express his or her commitment to Jewish life. It is the success
of the campaign that makes possible the rescue of Jews in need, here at
home and abroad, the building of our local community, and many other
activities and programs in the New Bedford area.
