Dear JFS Supporters and Community Members:
This is your Jewish Family Service of Metrowest 2019 Report to the Community.
We are a powerful collective, marshaling professional talent and purposeful volunteerism, combined with philanthropy.
Please read the president and CEO message on the opening page as there are important and exciting changes occurring at JFS.
Look at JFS on Charity Navigator: 4 stars, a 100% score. Almost unheard of.
JFS is accelerating social, academic and health equity for our community members.
Our programs have demonstrated impacts.
We thank you for your investment, commitment and generosity.
These are perilous times for vulnerable children, families and elders.
It cuts across the Jewish community and the general community.
The government safety net is ripping apart and many of our clients are tumbling toward crisis. Immigrants and refugees rejected by our national leadership.
The distressed families unable to make ends meet; the children needing warm clothes and food; the immigrants striving to become citizens; the unexpectedly unemployed looking for a job; the older adults with memory problems needing accompaniment to doctors’ appointments; couples and individuals wanting to create a family through adoption; the adult children struggling to take care of frail, aging parents.
JFS must be there for them.
JFS is an agency filled with problem solvers. We find the solutions to these problems and very personal needs.
Please click here to view the Report and feel free to share it across your own networks.
If you would like to have a face-to-face meeting to deepen your knowledge and connect to JFS, please contact Amanda Coughlin at acoughlin@jfsmw.org.
