Supporting and furthering the work of Jewish federations and communities across Canada at home, in Israel and overseas.

Since 1967, Jewish Federations of Canada-UIA has worked in partnership with Jewish Federations and regional communities across Canada to strengthen Jewish life and raise funds for programs and services in Canada, Israel and overseas. Initially, the organization’s main purpose was as a central body to manage fund transfers to Israel and work with the Jewish Agency for Israel. Jewish Federations of Canada – UIA represents ten Canadian Jewish federations and four regional councils. The organization and its agencies provide direct services to independent regional Jewish communities where there is not a formally organized Jewish Federation.
