Tuesday, July 14 | 7 PM

This crisis is unfolding as we speak. Come hear how we can stand with the people of Venezuela in this critical moment.

Presented in partnership with the Greater Miami Jewish Federation and Temple Menorah

Right now, as the people of Venezuela are living through the aftermath of a devastating earthquake, Federation partner IsraAID is on the ground responding. Come hear firsthand from IsraAID about their comprehensive response from team members coming directly from Venezuela to share their experiences with you.

We're honored that David Mishkin, President of Hebraica (Venezuela's Jewish community center), will join us to share more about their emergency response on the ground and the urgent needs facing families right now. Also in attendance will be Juliana Peña, IsraAID's Director of Latin America Progams, Matan Sivek, Chief of Strategic Partnerships at IsraAID and Thalma Cohen de Abadi, Vice President of the Board of Directors of Colegio Moral y Luces, the Jewish community school of Venezuela.

IsraAID is the leading disaster relief and humanitarian aid organization based out of Israel, is non-governmental and nonpolitical, and has responded to disasters in 67 countries over the last 25 years. Less than 20 hours after the devastating earthquakes hit Venezuela last week, we already had teams on the ground, deploying from our long-term work just across the border in Colombia. We have partnered with the Hebraica, the Jewish Community Center in Caracas, along with local municipal governments, and are providing urgent needs while planning to be there for the long term to support both the Jewish and non-Jewish communities as they begin to recover.
