Hurricane Ian Victims Still Need Our Help

The Greater Miami Jewish Federation continues working hand-in-hand with neighboring federations and The Jewish Federations of North America to provide critical assistance to individuals and families impacted by Hurricane Ian. We have provided financial support to a senior living facility in Sarasota that has offered emergency housing to older adults who were displaced due to the storm. Additionally, we have partnered with Cadena, an emergency response nonprofit, which immediately distributed solar lamps, water filtration devices and hygiene kits to low income families whose homes were flooded. We are also working with the Federations of Naples and Charlotte & Lee Counties to provide financial assistance to those whose homes were damaged or destroyed. If you have not yet contributed to our Hurricane Ian Emergency Fund, please click here to make a secure donation. As always, Federation will absorb all administrative costs so that 100 percent of funds donated to Hurricane Ian relief will provide critically needed aid to both the Jewish and non-Jewish communities affected by this catastrophic storm.
