Help Victims of Hurricane Helene

Be part of Jewish Miami's response to help victims of Hurricane Helene. The Greater Miami Jewish Federation has established an Emergency Relief Fund to assist individuals impacted by the catastrophic hurricane, which made landfall as a Category 4 storm near Perry, in the Big Bend area of Florida’s Gulf Coast. Millions of people are without power across the state and some coastal areas experienced a record-breaking 15-foot storm surge. As always, Federation will absorb all administrative costs so that 100 percent of funds donated to Hurricane Helene relief will provide critically needed aid to both the Jewish and non-Jewish communities affected by this devastating storm. Please click here to make a secure donation. You may also send a check payable to the Greater Miami Jewish Federation with the notation "Hurricane Helene Emergency Relief Fund" to 4200 Biscayne Boulevard, Miami, FL 33137. If you are interested in volunteering in affected areas, email Jewish Volunteer Center Director Lori Tabachnikoff at [email protected].
