Amidst rising threats in response to increased hate speech and antisemitism, Jewish organizations in Dallas have increased needs to secure their campuses to protect their constituents.  We are also seeing an increased need to bolster security infrastructure, training, and crisis response in Jewish communities throughout the world.  We have compiled this list to reflect current security needs of local Jewish organizations that were either submitted through DJCF’s Funder’s File or shared with our team, as well as opportunities to support Jewish community security on a global level. However, we recognize that it is not comprehensive, and we encourage you to give to the organizations that most speak to you.

DJCF – Securing Our Community Fund

Securing Our Community Fund will be distributed to local Jewish organizations to bolster security infrastructure, provide increased training and education, and support crisis response in Jewish communities throughout the world.  Current security needs include purchasing additional cameras and monitoring systems, upgrading facilities, ensuring protective measures are in place on school and shul campuses, and expanding law enforcement presence as appropriate.
