Just Days to Go for Tax-Smart Giving in 2023

Only two more days remain for tax-smart giving in 2023, making this your last chance this year to demonstrate your support of Israel and help confront the rising tide of antisemitism here at home. Every donation to the Annual Greater Miami Jewish Federation/UJA Campaign today enables vital services to immediately reach those who urgently need them, from Israelis forced to evacuate their homes to the elderly, including Holocaust Survivors, still sheltering in place, as well as those whose trauma and special needs have increased dramatically since the start of the war. Thanks to the heartfelt commitment of our generous donors, the Annual Campaign sustains a robust infrastructure that was already in place in Israel on October 6, so we could immediately help on October 7 without missing a beat. Here in Miami, the Campaign also provides vital funding to 11 Jewish day schools, JCCs and other educational and cultural institutions, while our Office of Community Security works to secure our Jewish institutions and our Jewish Community Relations Council responds to acts of Jew hatred. Your one donation in the next two days can do all that – and much more. Please click here to contribute now.
