Together with our partners — Jewish Community Services of South Florida (JCS) and Mishkan Miami: The Jewish Connection for Spiritual Support — we will be providing financial assistance, chaplaincy support, crisis counseling and social services to people impacted by the tragedy. Please participate in the community’s collective response by clicking here. Donation checks with the notation “Surfside Building Collapse” can be mailed to: Greater Miami Jewish Federation, 4200 Biscayne Boulevard, Miami, FL 33137. As always, Federation will absorb all administrative costs so that 100 percent of funds collected will be used to provide assistance to those affected.
