Who we are

A fund built on personal connection

Founded by family

This fund was established by Michael and Lori Feldstein through the Jewish Community Foundation of Greater Mercer. The Feldstein family has direct and personal connections to the Abayudaya Jewish community of Uganda.

Carried forward in person

The support this fund enables is provided through the generous and devoted assistance of David Freiman of the Federation of Jewish Men’s Clubs. David has actively supported the Abayudaya through frequent missions to Uganda and tireless work from the US.
