Jewish Federation of Palm Beach County

Our hearts are with the people of Venezuela as they face the aftermath of two devastating earthquakes that struck yesterday.

Our partners at Jewish Federations of North America, JDC, and The Jewish Agency for Israel are already providing emergency relief to the Venezuelan Jewish community whose homes were damaged or who are without electricity, water, or essential supplies.

Moments like this remind us of the power of Jewish Palm Beach’s generosity through Federation’s Annual Campaign. Thanks to your support, our global emergency response network was mobilized immediately to assist the Jewish community of Venezuela, and we will continue to stand with them in the days ahead.

Thank you for fulfilling the timeless principle of Kol Yisrael Arevim Zah Bazeh, all Jews are responsible for one another.

There's something special about gathering around a Shabbat table.

Our second Community-Wide Shabbat brought together LGBTQIA+ Jews and allies for an evening of warmth, conversation, laughter, and meaningful connection. Seeing new friendships begin and familiar faces reconnect is what community is all about.

Thank you to our Pride Committee, OneTable, Keshet, Cantor Suzanne Guinane, Maggie Douglas, Sy Douglas, and everyone who helped create such a welcoming evening.

We can't wait to gather again. In the meantime, explore our new Pride Resource Hub and discover ways to connect throughout the year. 🌈💜https://jewishpb.org/pride-resources/

On Juneteenth, Jewish Federation of Palm Beach County proudly honors the end of slavery in the United States and commemorates freedom and resilience.

The histories of Black and Jewish communities are deeply interconnected, shaped by a shared pursuit of justice and human dignity.

As we reflect on this important day, we reaffirm our commitment to standing against racism, antisemitism, and all forms of hate through Federation’s Palm Beach Center to Combat Antisemitism & Hatred, which works to combat hate, foster allyship, and build a safe, welcoming community for all.

🏆 Award-Winning Storytelling!

We’re thrilled to share that mosaic, Federation’s TV news magazine, was selected from more than 13,000 entries worldwide to receive two Bronze Telly Awards for two standout episodes.

The first episode, Combating Antisemitism Through Education, featured Federation’s Palm Beach Center to Combat Antisemitism & Hatred, along with students from The Benjamin School whose local production of “Here There Are Blueberries” brought attention to the dangers of antisemitism and hatred.

The second episode, Wine, War, and Israel's Economy, spotlighted Israel’s highly regarded wine industry and how the stories behind the wines help bridge political and social divides.

Thank you to Guy Kuperman, a member of Federation’s Strategic Planning Implementation Committee, Palm Beach Israel Council, Combat AntiSemitism and the Stacey & Mark Levy Center for Israel and Overseas.

Mazel Tov to our entire mosaic team, including host Susan Shulman Pertnoy.
