Who We Are

 

Since CJP’s founding in 1895, our mission has been focused on the future and the vitality of this community. We’re creating and nurturing programs and initiatives that contribute to the health and vibrancy of our People, and we’re supporting incredible partners who help shape and fortify our community for generations to come. From Boston to Israel and across the globe — and with every volunteer, every leader, every partner, every dollar, every donor, every day — we’re working together to build something greater than ourselves, turning individual acts of kindness into collective action that strengthens Jewish life and makes the world a better place for all.
