Hineni. Here when you need us. That single Hebrew word, Hineni (meaning "I am here") has guided our work for over 135 years. It's a promise we make to every person who walks through our doors, and it's the heart of Community of Giving.

What Is Community of Giving?

Community of Giving is JF&CS's annual gathering for the donors, partners, and friends who make our work possible. It's a chance to step inside the JF&CS experience: to hear directly from the people we serve, to see our programs in action through interactive experiences led by our expert staff, and to celebrate the impact happening across our agency every single day.

This year's event will:

• Celebrate your impact on our community
• Feature personal stories shared by our clients
• Offer hands-on experiences with our programs, guided by the staff who run them
• Support a path to dignity and hope for those who need it most

Why It Matters

At JF&CS, we serve people of all ages, faiths, cultures, and lifestyles across metro Atlanta, whether through mental health counseling, older adult services, dental care, food and financial assistance, or programs for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. At Community of Giving, we invite our supporters to see that work up close.
