The Tidewater Jewish Foundation understands the importance of identifying multiple areas of charitable opportunities to be able to meet the varying goals and needs of our donors. We want to help you help others today and for generations to come.

TJF partners with local synagogues and agencies to fulfill the needs of our communities, both locally and abroad. Through these strategic partnerships, TJF remains a highly respected and trusted philanthropic organization.

Our team has deep education and experience in the financial, non-profit, and Jewish communal fields, which helps our donors learn about what kinds of funds work best for their needs and goals. We pride ourselves on financial transparency and accessibility.

TJF was created in 1984 to establish deep roots of philanthropy that would bear fruit for future generations. Since then, TJF has made it possible for individuals in Tidewater to fulfill their philanthropic intent and to enrich their lives through tzedakah, with fund holders distributing over $200 million in charitable dollars.
