Sign Up Now and Open Your Teen's Youth Mitzvah Fund

Youth Mitzvah Funds are for 12-14 years old. They are invited to set up a personalized Youth Mitzvah Fund at the Jewish Federation of Greater Seattle. With money donated into the fund by friends and family, teens can grant a portion of the funds each year to the charities of their choice, keeping enough in the fund to last throughout high school. They are then invited to participate in 3 - 4 sessions through the school year (in 8th grade) that will include nonprofit visits, community service opportunities and discussions on Jewish values of giving. The Youth Mitzvah Sessions begin this fall, so sign up now for participation during the 2010-2011 school year.
