The Community Post Is Sending Twice a Week to Further Support Your Efforts
As Israel continues to defend itself in the face of Hamas’ deadly attacks, Miami’s Jewish community is organizing numerous pro-Israel programs and events, as well as other responses to increased acts of antisemitism. To assist your organization in promoting your efforts – and to reach thousands of readers – the Greater Miami Jewish Federation’s Community Post online bulletin is doubling its eblasts to twice a week - Wednesdays and Sundays - for the foreseeable future.
