Dear Friends,

This year has been one of extraordinary transition and opportunity for both JFS Dallas and the JFS Dallas Foundation. As we grow together, I am continually reminded that none of this progress would be possible without your commitment, your vision, and your belief in the future of our community.

The unveiling of our new brand marks more than a visual change, it represents a deeper alignment between the Agency and the Foundation. Together, we are telling a unified story about who we are, the values we stand for, and how we care for our community. This shared purpose is perfectly embodied by the families of the L’dor V’dor Society, whose ongoing support of both JFS Dallas and the JFS Dallas Foundation demonstrates what it truly means to sustain a legacy from one generation to the next.

At the same time, we are preparing to open the doors of the new Karla and Larry Steinberg Building, a space intentionally designed to expand access to JFS services. As staff begin to move into this new home, the Foundation is working to build an enduring legacy of financial strength and resilience to ensure that the programs offered by JFS remain strong, innovative, and financially secure for decades to come.

Our community’s generosity allows the JFS Dallas Foundation to continue to focus on the long-term sustainability, stability, and relevance of JFS’s services and mission. Through financial and strategic stewardship, generous philanthropy, planned giving, and endowments, you are helping build a future in which every person who turns to JFS can find support and well-being.

While we have accomplished a lot this past year, there is still a lot of work ahead.

Thank you! Thank you for being part of this continued growth. I am honored to share this journey with you, and I look forward to all we will continue to accomplish – together from generation to generation, l’dor v’dor.
