The organization formerly called the Jewish Community Federation of Greater Chattanooga will now be known as the Jewish Federation of Greater Chattanooga, as of March 1. The name change and re-designed logo for this local nonprofit organization is part of a re-branding effort by its parent organization, now known as Jewish Federations of North America (JFNA).
The Jewish Federation of Greater Chattanooga launched its new name and logo, along with a redesigned website (www.jewishchattanooga.com) at its Annual Meeting on Feb. 28.
“I am so glad that JFNA made this change,” said Chattanooga Executive Director Michael Dzik. “By incorporating ‘Federation’ into its name, JFNA makes clear its connection to the 157 Federations in the U.S. and Canada, which are under its umbrella.”
The Jewish Federation of Greater Chattanooga was established in 1931. This year, the organization was a finalist for both the Chattanooga Area Chamber of Commerce Nonprofit of the Year award and the Be More Creative award presented by WTCI.
