Birmingham Jewish Federation

Discover Jewish Birmingham

For 90 years, the Birmingham Jewish Federation has helped make our city a welcoming place for Jewish life. Together with our agencies, synagogues, donors, volunteers, and community partners, we are strengthening community security, caring for those in need, investing in Jewish education and engagement, and responding to the challenges and opportunities facing Jewish life today.

Enriching Jewish life at home and abroad since 1936

The Birmingham Jewish Federation is the central hub of our Jewish community, dedicated to raising funds, sustaining local Jewish life, supporting Israel and Jews globally, and advocating for Jewish causes. We are also committed to building bridges and strengthening the greater Birmingham community.
