JFS Akron is a division of JFSA Cleveland.

For many older adults in our community, home offers a sense of safety and belonging. Jewish Family Service of Akron helps them continue living there with independence and dignity. Friends like you make that possible, bringing stability and hope when they are needed most.

Gifts to the JFS Akron Annual Friends Campaign sustain programs for older adults that insurance and government funding do not cover. Last year, 317 people across Greater Akron received JFS Akron’s older adult and mental health services, including transportation, home care, arts and cultural events, virtual programming, food pantry assistance, and referrals to appropriate community resources. Behind every service is a neighbor who may be facing isolation, uncertainty, or a difficult transition. Your generosity provides compassionate support—whether through personalized guidance, a reassuring visit, or a meaningful opportunity to connect with others.

Please consider contributing today to support these essential services. Your gift today helps older adults remain connected, cared for, and secure in the place they call home.
