The Jewish Federation of Metropolitan Detroit is a person-to-person, community-driven organization dedicated to the health, education, spiritual, and cultural identity of the Jewish people worldwide. Through the annual fundraising drive, and in partnership with the United Jewish Foundation, Federation raises and allocates funds to provide life-saving and life-enhancing humanitarian assistance to those in need, and to translate Jewish values into social action on behalf of the nearly 100,000 Jews in the Detroit area.

Additionally, Federation funding impacts the lives of thousands of Jews throughout Israel, in the former Soviet Union, and in 60 countries around the world.
