Why JFF?
Amy has always been interested in how our community can respond and support people in various ways. During the decade she spent building her own family she thought about others facing fertility challenges and wanted to make a difference as so many people who are trying to build their families feel very marginalized. JFF is a transformative organization that can help people feel accepted, taken in, and cared for while they are experiencing this life crisis. And we can connect people to Judaism, hopefully creating a lifelong connection.
