Background
A group of visionary philanthropists established the Jewish Community Foundation (JCF) in 1949, because they understood that the well-being of our community depended upon planning for and investing in our future. The Jewish Community Foundation is a wholly owned subsidiary of Jewish Federation of Greater MetroWest NJ and serves as its planned giving and endowment department.
Today, the Jewish Community Foundation is one of the largest managers of charitable assets in New Jersey, and among the top ten Jewish community foundations in North America. Currently, we have more than $840 million in assets under management, and more than $100 million in future commitments. We currently manage more than 822 funds for individuals, families, and foundation donors.
Our foundation professionals work hand-in hand with donors to create personalized plans for meaningful philanthropy. We focus on short and long-term goals to ensure maximum and sustained impact. The professional team supports donor-advised funds, advisory councils, and supporting foundations.
