Everyone knows October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, but few know that 1 in 40 Ashkenazi Jews — both men and women — carries a BRCA mutation, which can significantly increase their risk of cancer.Yodeah, a Federation-supported nonprofit, educates the Jewish community about hereditary cancer genetic mutations and provides access to affordable, clinical-grade testing. The volunteer-led organization is hosting The Power of Knowledge: How Knowing About Your Genetics Can Save Your Life and the Lives of Those You Love on Tuesday, October 25 at 7 p.m. Dr. Liz Etkin-Kramer, Yodeah founder and gynecologist, will facilitate the virtual conversation with Dr. Elisa Krill-Jackson, an oncologist specializing in breast cancer; Dr. Matthew Schlumbrecht, gynecological oncologist; and Morgan Weinblatt, who will share her courageous story of the proactive steps she chose to mitigate her risk of developing cancer once learning she was BRCA positive.

In honor of ADHD Awareness Month, Alper JCC Miami presents Bryan Mark Rigg and his book Conquering Learning Disabilities at Any Age: How an ADHD/LD Kid Graduated from Yale and Cambridge and Became a Marine Officer, Military Historian, Financial Advisor, and Caring Father. With his gifts for academic research and storytelling, Riggs shares his story of triumphing over adversity. As a child, Bryan was a tornado who couldn’t speak intelligibly or control his temper. Today, he speaks two languages, earned a Ph.D., served in the Israel Defense Forces and the U.S. Marine Corps, taught at the university level, worked on Wall Street, and built a successful financial services firm. All from a boy who couldn’t read or write until he was eight! His journey is a blueprint for creating a life that works with neurological differences, and not against them.

In partnership with Alper JCC Miami's Tikvah and Inclusion Programs and Chabad Pinecrest/Kendall Friendship Circle

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.
