On behalf of Jewish Family Service of Metrowest, we invite you to support our agency’s annual fundraising event, Seize the Dream, that attracts an audience of over 400 guests from Greater Boston and Metrowest. The secret of our success continues to be our ability to harness the power of collaborative partnerships. Your contribution will be crucial in helping us reach our goals and we hope you will support our vital work. You can publicize your business to this large and discerning audience, make a difference in the lives of Metrowest families in need, and even take a tax deduction by donating an item to be sold at auction.

JFS is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit agency that strives to accelerate social, academic, and health equity. We provide services to ALL people in need of assistance within our community, regardless of religious affiliation, with a particular focus on frail and isolated older adults, immigrants, and vulnerable children. The proceeds of the auction support programs ranging from academic mentoring for at-risk-children and first-generation college students to food and basic needs assistance to refugee and evacuee resettlement services. The need has never been greater, as JFS assisted over 7,500 individuals this past year. For more information about our agency, please visit our website at JFSMW.org.

The event will be held on Thursday, May 5, 2022, at the Westin Waltham Hotel. We are excited to announce that this year again, we will be auctioning items online prior to the event as well as during the event. The online auction will be open from April 28th through May 5th. Your donation item and business name will be showcased the night of the event to all 400+ attendees as well as to the auction platform’s community (BiddingForGood.com) of over 1.7 million members, reaching philanthropic shoppers from all over the world. Your donation offers a great marketing opportunity while at the same time making a difference in family’s lives.  

If you have questions about the event or a potential item, please contact me by phone (508-875-3100 x501) or e-mail (zblankstein@jfsmw.org) by April 5, 2021. Thank you in advance for your support, for believing in our mission, and for helping us Seize the Dream!
