For 126 years, JFS has proudly served this community through counseling, support services, and refugee services programming. And our community of donors and partners has been with us to support these efforts. However, our ability to provide these vital services is now at risk.

In a normal year, our recent Annual Appeal campaign would have been considered successful. But this is not a normal year, and we are facing difficult choices. Recent federal budget cuts and the government shut down have slashed or delayed our funding, creating a significant gap in our operational budget.

If you have already given this year, thank you. If you are able to give again or if still considering and can increase your donation, your support will go even further.

Together, we can overcome this challenging time. Thank you for your consideration and for your belief in our mission.

We recognize also that times are tough for many in our community. There are a variety of ways to donate aside from cash. Please reach out to learn more.

With gratitude and hope,

JFS Delaware is a nonprofit human services agency with a mission to strengthen individuals, families, and the community by providing counseling and support services.

JFS is a place where
all members of our community can receive help and support to overcome life’s challenges and cope with difficult situations.

General Donations to JFS are preferred as it allows us to distribute the funds where they are needed most. Thank you!
