Greater Miami Jewish Federation Stands With Parkland

In a show of solidarity and support for the victims and survivors of the horrific shooting in Parkland, Federation’s Women’s Philanthropy and Jewish Volunteer Center joined the Jewish Federation of Broward County for its Purim Project for Parkland. Members of the Miami Jewish community helped our neighbors to the north to pack 3,000 mishloach manot (treats for Purim) that will be hand-delivered to Parkland families affected by the shooting. If you were unable to attend, but want to help, click here to donate to the Broward Trauma and Mental Health Fund. One hundred percent of the funds will be used to provide training for front-line professionals and mental health counseling for the treatment of students, teachers, families and community members.
