Deepening jewish engagement and strengthening jewish communities ("jewish life")uja supports innovative initiatives that encourage jews of all ages to explore their jewish identity and funds a variety of programs across the spectrum of the jewish community. These programs strengthen synagogues, support college students by promoting jewish life on campus, connect young jews to israel, and create an inclusive and welcoming community for all jews. As part of its commitment to education and lifelong learning, uja supports both informal and formal jewish educational programs for children and adults. Uja also provides scholarships and teacher benefits at jewish day schools, as well as (continued on schedule o)scholarships for israel experience programs and jewish summer day and overnight camps, all of which are important platforms for positive jewish experiences and engagement. In response to the outpouring of jewish expression following october 7, uja has invested an additional $25 million over three years to support opportunities that will further inspire and connect the jewish community. Uja maintains an unwavering commitment to the people of israel, helping to ensure that israel is a safe, vibrant, jewish and democratic country. Uja invests in the social service needs of israel's most vulnerable and helps to strengthen israeli civil society.
