Community Alliance for Jewish-affiliated Cemeteries (CAJAC) is a nonprofit organization established to rescue and maintain Jewish cemeteries. CAJAC's mission is to be a central repository for fundraising, endowment management and the general care of abandoned and at-risk Jewish cemeteries.[2]
The organization was incorporated as Friends of Bayside Cemetery on September 22, 2006.[3] It officially changed its name to Community Association for Jewish At-risk Cemeteries on April 13, 2007.[3] The organization officially changed its name again to Community Alliance for Jewish-affiliated Cemeteries on August 11, 2014.[3]
Starting with seed money from the UJA Federation of New York, CAJAC has begun a massive restoration and maintenance program at Bayside Cemetery in Queens, New York. CAJAC has employed a private contractor and instituted a volunteer program to clear the entire cemetery.
