Lion of Judah, minimum gift of $5,000

The Lion of Judah is a symbol of the strength Jewish women have in today’s world. Lions of Judah care about the organized Jewish world and provide financial commitments in their own names of $5,000 or more to the annual campaign. We are proud to have more than 17,000 Lions of Judah in North America who wear the Lion of Judah pin. The Lion of Judah program has brought together women of all ages and from many walks of life to play an essential role promoting social justice, healing the sick, feeding the hungry, preserving human dignity, and building Jewish identity.

Some women also choose to endow their Lion of Judah gifts. By endowing your gift to Federation, you ensure that an annual gift is made in your name for generations to come.
