Participate in Charity Galas in Virginia supporting important causes and bringing your community together. These events celebrate cultural heritage while raising awareness and funds for organizations serving the community.
Join us for a special luncheon honoring the legacy of the Hebrew Ladies Charity Society and its lasting impact on our community. Together, we'll reflect on the early days of Jewish Family Service of Tidewater and celebrate the vital contributions the Society made to Hampton Roads.
This meaningful gathering is also a chance to explore your own family history—perhaps your grandparents or great-grandparents played a role in shaping the origins of JFS.
We look forward to sharing this inspiring afternoon with you!
