Welcome to the digital home of the Greater Altoona Jewish Federation.  To further our efforts to inform, educate and enrich our Jewish souls, your Federation is now available to you every minute of every day.

It is the goal of your Federation to continue to provide new and exciting ways to enhance the Jewish experience in our community.  To further this goal we have planned an interactive website that will bring current news and fresh perspectives on local, national and international Jewish concerns.  We plan to update our site on a regular basis and be more than an online reference guide.  We want to have new and pertinent content every time you log on to www.greateraltoonajewishfederation.com.

As you browse through our website you will find our community calendar, photos from Sunday school events, future programming, community favorites, news from Jewish communities around the world as well as links to websites of various interests

Not only will our website be full of social, cultural and educational content, I also hope this site becomes a tool for community building and bringing members of our community together.   Building on the success of our excellent biannual newsletter, L’chaim, our website will look to bring all the current happenings in our community and highlight our members activities in our community.  We will also use this site to profile member families as we have done in our newsletter.

Ultimately the success of our website will rest on your input and help with the development of our content, especially in the Jewish Life area.  We encourage everyone to submit book reviews, jokes, quotes as well as your favorite websites, podcasts, music, recipes and travel spots.  We can learn so much from each other and this is one vehicle to share various topics of interest.

I welcome your feedback and your input.  I hope you think of this website as your Jewish family album and community bulletin board.

On behalf of the Board of Directors of your Greater Altoona Jewish Federation, I hope you find this website meaningful and I hope you will visit often and contribute to this community resource on a regular basis.
