Guide to Jewish Wisconsin 2025-2026 - Catalog - Page 3
Welcome from the Publisher
Greetings!
The Milwaukee Jewish Federation publishes the Guide to Jewish Wisconsin as an annual
invitation to discover how exciting Jewish life can be in the Badger State. Whether you’re a
newcomer or a native, the Guide will help you get to know the people and the organizations
that make our state a rich and fulfilling place to be Jewish. We hope newcomers will use
the Guide to become acquainted with our state’s vibrant Jewish life, and current residents
will experience even more of what our community has to offer.
Here are a few more ways to learn about local Jewish life:
• Bookmark the online Guide at MilwaukeeJewish.org/Guide.
• Text WJC to 51555 to get text alerts from the Wisconsin Jewish Chronicle.
