Program areas at Jewish Federation of New Hampshire
Funds are granted from this agency to other organizations which are local, within our state, country and overseas. These funds are provided to non-profit organizations that provide services that further our stated mission. The largest allocations are to support Jewish education within New Hampshire (funding is given to 8 synagogues for their schools) and the Jewish Federation of north america. Other allocations are given to organizations including birthright israel. With this program, jfnh acts similarly to the heritage united way, by collecting one gift and distributing it amongst many recipients.
The New Hampshire Jewish film festival strives to enhance an appreciation of extraordinary individuals, culture, identity, history and contemporary issues in Jewish and israeli life. Using the power of film and programming to educate and entertain, we encourage dialogue on diverse perspectives, broadening understanding and strengthening community.
Jfnh publishes and distributes a newspaper, "the nh Jewish reporter" ten times per year to every known Jewish address within our state free of charge. The purpose of the paper is to educate and inform the statewide Jewish community regarding issues related to the Jewish community including its values, culture and history. Information is also included regarding programs and events. The paper accepts submissions from other Jewish organizations without charge, allowing them to inform the community of programs and events. The costs of the paper are partially defrayed through paid advertising.
Various programs - for education, youth summer programs, senior citizen trips, community and social services - all for Jewish education and gathering of Jewish community members
