Dear _______,
As we continue to recover from the effects of the pandemic, our brothers and sisters in Ukraine are facing unimaginable danger. Through your donation to the Annual Greater Miami Jewish Federation/UJA Campaign, an existing network of humanitarian agencies were able to spring into action immediately to provide rescue, relief and resettlement for the 200,000 Jews living in the war-torn country.
While all eyes are on Ukraine, Federation continues to support a variety of critical needs in Miami and Israel.
Since the pandemic began, we have served more than 40,000 individuals and families through 32 Free Kosher Food Distribution Drive-Thrus.
In the aftermath of the catastrophic collapse of Champlain Towers South in Surfside, we contributed more than $1.6 million in direct financial assistance to survivors of the tragedy and their families.
Federation provided 10 Jewish day schools with an additional $2 million to sustain their essential work through the pandemic, while following new health and safety guidelines. This is in addition to the more than $1.8 million that the Annual Campaign already provides for Jewish day school education.
THIS IS EXACTLY WHY FEDERATION EXISTS
Our holy work on behalf of the Jewish community relies on you.
Will you please consider helping us with a donation of $ ______ (see suggested amount on platform)? You may make a direct payment at jewishmiami.org/sunday22.
Thank you, ________________

Offered at a variety of cemeteries and virtually on Zoom, participants will join together in memory and prayer and light a yahrzeit candle for those who brought light into this world. Following the short program, you can visit the graves of loved ones with relevant materials provided.
The Greater Miami Jewish Federation and the Rabbinical Association of Greater Miami are once again partnering with local synagogues to make High Holiday services accessible to all.
As we approach the High Holidays, it’s important to remember that all people — those with disabilities and those without — want to participate in community prayer. That is why Federation’s Miami Jewish Abilities Alliance (MJAA) is sharing valuable resources to elevate worship and celebrate Judaism.
Hundreds of people from across Jewish Miami gathered recently at the Miami Beach Botanical Gardens to thank the outgoing Federation Women’s Philanthropy Board of Directors for their outstanding service and to install new leadership for the coming year.
The Mission of the Greater Miami Jewish Federation is to mobilize human and financial resources to care for those in need, strengthen Jewish life and advance the unity, values and shared purpose of the Jewish people in Miami, in Israel and around the world.
