The Jewish Federation of Greater Indianapolis has launched its 2026 Annual Campaign with the theme It Starts With Us, a call to action underscoring the power of individuals to shape a vibrant Jewish future. More than a slogan, the theme invites donors, volunteers, and beneficiaries alike to recognize their role as catalysts for change. The strength of the community begins when each person steps forward with heart and vision, because building the future requires collective responsibility and leadership.
The 2026 Campaign is underway, and It Starts With Us.
Raising Dollars
Building a Community
For more than a century, the Jewish Federation and our partners have been here to support the community and help those in need. This is especially true during difficult times, and now is no different.
Our community’s Annual Campaign provides the basic infrastructure that supports our Jewish community. It delivers vital funding to sustain the Federation and its partners, ensuring critical programs and services are available. It is why we are here to respond when a crisis strikes, and it is why we are here for the community long after it passes.
