While it’s easy to condemn Jewish federations in many places, we are truly blessed in Chicago. As Avraham notes, our federation has been supportive of the yeshivishe community in a variety of ways. I have interacted with Federation staff members at every level as a representative of a yeshiva, and not only was everyone as helpful as possible, but they were eager for our participation and wanted to make sure they could work with us in an appropriate and effective manner. We should be blessed to never need the services of J-CERT.

Regarding the Jewish Federation of Metropolitan Chicago: As Frum Chicago parents, we sincerely appreciate the major, long-time financial support the Federation has provided to the local Yeshivos, Batei Yaakov, and Hebrew Day Schools. Baruch HaShem that the wide spectrum of Jews funding the Chicago Federation recognizes the importance of a Torah education. The Ribono Shel Olam shall grant them Brachah VeHatzlachah.
