A successful Community Campaign is essential to ensure the strength and well-being of Jewish Tidewater’s agencies and community members.
Understanding that the longer the COVID-19 crisis drags on, the greater will become the needs of Jewish Tidewater’s community agencies and individuals, the 2021 campaign was grateful to receive a special incentive grant to help boost the impact of ALL first-time and increased gifts made during Thanksgiving week.
Through GIVING TUESDAY, December 1, the grant will match donor increases (of any size) dollar-for-dollar. It will also match gifts made by new donors 100%.
The match will apply on gifts made to the 2021 UJFT Community Campaign.
(NOTE: There are additional grants to match gifts directed to the COVID-19 Emergency Relief Fund of the Tidewater Jewish Community.)
A donor, for example, who increases his or her gift from say $118 to $180 will be matched dollar-for-dollar on the $62 increase. Their total impact will then be $180 + $62, or $242 to the 2021 campaign. The greater the increase, the greater the impact on the Campaign.
For more information, call Amy Zelenka, campaign director, at 757‑965‑6139. You can make a gift over the phone by calling Amy; online at Jewishva.org (click United Jewish Federation of Tidewater then “Give Now” at the top of the screen); or by writing a check to UJFT and mailing it to:
