Despite the challenges we are facing right now, Federation and our community agencies and institutions haven't stopped serving Jewish Calgarians! That is why
Calgary Jewish Federation has created Jewish Calgary Together, an online hub where you can find virtual programs and events, resources, and opportunities for volunteering or assisting with other needs in our community. We will link the updated page in Federation Four every Friday and will send out our
Jewish Calgary Together newsletter to our ePom subscribers every Monday in place of our previous ePom newsletter. Please
contact us if you have not been receiving ePom and would like to receive our
Jewish Calgary Together newsletter or if you have questions about this new initiative.
Kesher means connection. Just because we are in physical isolation, doesn’t mean that we can’t stay connected.
On Sunday, March 29, at 1:00pm, join Calgary Jewish Federation’s Inclusion department for the first virtual Kesher program, The Virtual Kesher – The Power of Connection. This ongoing program will feature sing-alongs, presentations, and activities led by varied community clergy and local Calgary talents.

Right now, charities, non-profits, and essential service organizations are crucial to helping vulnerable segments of our society, reducing the burden on government, and serving as an integral part of a massive problem.
Join our partners at The Centre for Jewish and Israel Affairs (CIJA), in letting our government know that you want them to take immediate and practical steps to provide resources to the charitable sector so Canadians can continue to receive vital support through the COVID-19 crisis.
