Giving Options

The Annual Fund is an opportunity for donors to contribute to our work all year long. Funds generated through this giving option are unrestricted and supplement a variety of program and operational needs.

This is the most flexible of all contribution methods and allows JFS to allocate funds raised to areas that need it most. Give a tax-deductible gift today!

Most refugees, asylees, and humanitarian parolees arrive in the United States with very little. While we do our best to help our clients with housing and in-kind donations, financial support is always needed to assist with food, healthcare products, public transportation, school supplies, and so much more.

If you would like to help build a reserve that we can distribute from time-to-time to all types of families\, please contribute to our Community Uplift Fund.

JFS also gladly accepts donations made by check (including gifts from donor-advised funds or retirement accounts).
Checks payable to Jewish Family Services of WNY can be mailed to:
