The Healthcare Foundation of New Jersey is dedicated to carrying out the Jewish imperatives of tzedaka (righteousness; charity) and tikkun olam (repairing the world) through philanthropy. The foundation works to reduce disparities and increase access to quality health care for two target populations: low-income, underserved residents of Newark and the surrounding underserved communities; and the most vulnerable members of the Jewish communities of Essex, Morris, and Union counties. To date, the foundation has awarded more than $120 million to accomplish that goal.
