Send Evan Gershkovich Rosh Hashanah Greetings

Earlier this week, the Jewish Federations of North America (JFNA) launched a letter-writing campaign to collect Rosh Hashanah greetings for wrongfully imprisoned Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich. Evan was arrested more than five months ago by Russian authorities on false charges of espionage. Please join our national community by sending a letter of support through an online form and by sharing posts on social media platforms. The messages will be fused together to create one collective letter that will be sent directly to Evan through his legal team so he can hear from you and those who stand with him this New Year. The more people that participate, the greater the love and solidarity we will be able to communicate. We hope and pray that Evan will soon taste the sweetness of freedom.
