Your investment in the Jewish Federation has a huge impact on so many people, it:
- Provides emergency funds for members of the Jewish community in need.
- Helps Jews in need living in the United States, in Israel and around the world. Part of the Jewish Federation's annual campaign helps meet overseas needs through the Jewish Agency For Israel and Joint Distribution Committee.

- Helps send Oklahoma City Jewish teens for a trip of a lifetime to Israel.
