Board Members at our annual meeting 12/22/25
The Jewish Federation of Ocean County is gearing up for an
impactful and effective year in 2026, with some defined
priorities for our work in the community:
- Expanding our philanthropy through PJ Library, our support for JFCS, and grants programs to fight food insecurity and to help Jews in need in Israel and overseas.
- Continuing to work with partners throughout our community to enhance security and combat hate of all kinds.
As the pro-active, central coordinating and community relations agency of the Jewish community throughout Ocean County, NJ, the Jewish Federation of Ocean County (JFOC) works to create consensus and lead advocacy efforts to ensure that collectively, our voices are amplified and heard. JFOC builds bridges with other faiths, interests, and ethnic based groups that share our passion for social justice, and forges relationships based on the issues that matter most.
We welcome your support, involvement and partnership.
