Donate Now to Help Israelis Caught in the Crossfire

As the war with Iran heads into its second week, Federation is committed to helping Israelis with critical and immediate aid. One of our principal vehicles for that is The Jewish Agency for Israel's Fund for Victims of Terror (FVOT). Shiron Yaakov Alias held her little girls as a missile landed directly on her shelter, quickly setting it, and her entire home, ablaze. Like thousands of other Israelis caught in the crossfire, Shiran and her family received financial assistance and emotional support within 24 hours, all without filing an application or facing long bureaucratic lines and wait times. For years, FVOT has provided grants to Israelis affected by terror attacks of all kinds — including those of October 7. To support emergency needs in Israel, click here to make a secure donation. Watch this short video to see how your donations are at work in Israel right now.
