Federation is here to provide security with matching grants as part of the Security Infrastructure Program (SIP). In the past year, Federation provided $50,000 in matching SIP grants to help three community agencies enhance their security.
Led by our our dedicated advocacy specialist, this past year Federation held a hands-on antisemitism workshop with resources for young people. Other education initiatives, supported by our Shoah Committee and such community partners as the Centre for Holocaust Education and Scholarship (CHES) included specialized programming to teach about the legacy of the Holocaust in the broader Ottawa community with an exhibit that was accessed by more than 500 public school students.
A gift to the Annual Campaign provides the training, tools, and resources needed to keep Jewish Ottawa vibrant and safe.
