Foundation for Jewish Philanthropies
November 28, 2025

The Buffalo Jewish Federation is honored to spotlight the Foundation for Jewish Philanthropies, one of our Gold 2025 Corporate Sponsors.

The Foundation for Jewish Philanthropies mission is to empower donors to fulfill their passions and dreams by establishing charitable vehicles designed to create a positive and enduring impact on Jewish Buffalo, Western New York, and the World.

The Foundation’s purpose is to preserve the legacies of our forebearers who built our community over the past 100+ years and encourage current and future generations to create their own legacies, enhancing our community for the next 100 years.  They also seek to create permanent endowments, providing perpetual support for Jewish Buffalo, as well as those organizations that provide essential services to our local, national and world communities. And they serve donors in identifying the most appropriate strategies to fulfill their charitable objectives and providing the vehicles designed to accomplish their goals.

The Foundation manages the investment, preservation, and distribution of charitable legacies, bequests, trusts, and other donor directed philanthropic funds; counsels donors to provide them with knowledge and expertise in planning and implementing charitable gifts; and partners to address community needs.

The Foundation for Jewish Philanthropies would be honored to assist you and your family in preserving your legacy. Contact Irv Levy, Executive Director at [email protected] for more information.
