Jewish preschools partner with families like yours to help educate and nurture children in an environment filled with traditions, rituals, stories and ethics. Everyone in the family becomes immersed in the richness and diversity of Judaism, within a welcoming and supportive environment. This initiative makes $1,000 grants available to qualifying full-time preschoolers, and $500 grants available to qualifying part-time preschoolers.

Informal Jewish experiences — including Jewish camp — rank among the highest in connecting children, teens and young adults to their Jewish identity, and ensuring a lifelong commitment to that identity. To ensure that all young members of our community have access to these important experiences, the Rabbi Gershon Hadas Guardian Society provides financial assistance to families who wish to provide a Jewish summer enrichment experience for their children.

The Rabbi Gershon Hadas Guardian Society for Jewish Children also provides financial assistance to individuals who wish to participate in long term (three months or longer) Israel programs after high school or college.
