Mission Statement:
The Canadian Friends of the World Union for Progressive Judaism enables Canadians to support the efforts of the World Union for Progressive Judaism to further the development of progressive Judaism and encourage the formation of progressive Jewish communities in all countries of the world.
The Vision:
The Canadian Friends of the World Union for Progressive Judaism will be instrumental in the creation of progressive Jewish communities world-wide.
Its mandate is to raise funds in support of the programs and institutions of the World Union and the Israel Movement for Reform and Progressive Judaism. The Canadian Friends of the WUPJ works closely with the WUPJ and the IMPJ to ensure that the donated funds are used to support the efforts of the WUPJ and IMPJ to further the goals of the Canadian donors. The Canadian Friends of the WUPJ is a registered charity in Canada.
The Canadian Friends of the WUPJ raises funds for educational, religious and study programs in Israel, and around the world wherever there are Progressive Jewish communities. We fund synagogues, Jewish communities, nursery, elementary and high schools, adult education programs, programs for new immigrants, social action efforts and other programs that contribute to the growth of Reform Judaism in Israel, and around the world.
