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, ________________

Israel’s robust democracy was on full display as citizens turned out in droves to exercise their right to vote in this week’s national election — the first to occur since Hamas’ brutal terrorist attacks on October 7, and what many are calling the most crucial election in the country’s history.
At the Education Center of Federation’s Holocaust Memorial Miami Beach, Jewish Miami will gather to learn about and honor the victims of the Night of Broken Glass.

Jewish Miami extends our heartfelt gratitude to Miami Archbishop Thomas Wenski for calling on Catholics to stand with their Jewish brothers and sisters during the time of increased antisemitism.
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.
