Making Jewish Education a Reality

We know that Jewish day schools are the cornerstone of a thriving Jewish community. Through the work of our agencies, including Jewish Educational Services, we support quality Jewish education inside and outside the classroom. 

Whether it is funding for scholarships to help make tuition more affordable, stipends to make a gap year in Israel a reality or in-classroom support to meet the learning needs of all our students, we are planting a passion for Jewish learning now and in the future.

Jewish day schools in Baltimore receive funds for scholarships, support for children with learning differences, professional development training for teachers and more.

“Allowing teachers to learn and gain from others is priceless. Bringing in outside help to assist students helps not only the child himself but changes the entire classroom as well. Thank you!”
