A place for everyone


Every child deserves a chance to enjoy a Jewish education.


Jewish education plays a crucial role in the preservation and continuation of Jewish identity and culture. Through Jewish education, children can gain an understanding of our rich history and culture, as well as a sense of belonging to a larger community.

Moreover, Jewish education instills important values such as social justice (tikkun olam), kindness (chesed), and charity (tzedakah), which can shape individuals into well-rounded and ethical members of society.

 

We are here to help
– a tuition incentive

 

The Jewish Federation of Ottawa is proud to launch a two-year tuition incentive program to ensure Jewish education is accessible to everyone.

A place for everyone:

Here in Ottawa, we are proud to be home to five unique Jewish supplemental schools each dedicated to educating our children.

 

How it works:

In the first year, Federation covers $500 of the tuition; for the second year, Federation will cover $250 of the tuition.  

 

Who qualifies:

This incentive is for all families raising Jewish children and who are enrolling students for the first time in supplementary schools in the fall of 2023.
