Support the Calgary Jewish Academy

For over a century, Calgary Jewish Academy has been a cornerstone of Jewish life and learning in Calgary. As a modern Jewish day school, we are committed to providing students from Nursery to Grade 9 with an exceptional dual curriculum that brings together academic excellence, Jewish identity, tradition, and community.

Your support helps make this possible.

Whether you’re donating to a specific fund, honouring someone with a tribute card, or sponsoring a school event or space, your generosity directly supports our students, staff, and programs. Together, we create an environment where children grow into confident, compassionate learners, grounded in Jewish values and prepared for a changing world.

Ways to Support CJA

There are many meaningful ways to support our school community, including:

Direct donations to priority areas and school programs;

Tribute gifts to mark life moments, milestones, or memories;

Sponsorships of school events, programs, or spaces;

Legacy giving through the Life & Legacy® program;

Endowment giving through the Friends of CJA Trust; and

Community giving through the United Jewish Appeal (UJA).

The annual UJA campaign helps make Jewish education more accessible through the Integrated Bursary Program. Through UJA, families across Calgary can receive financial support to attend Jewish day school, ensuring that cost is not a barrier to learning and participation in Jewish life.

If you’d like to learn more about direct donations, sponsorships, or a specific giving opportunity to the Calgary Jewish Academy, please contact Dana Silver, Director of Community & Advancement at dsilver@cja.ab.ca.
