Be Part of the Jewish Community’s Response to Help Provide Emergency Resources to Combat the Dramatic and Devastating Wave of COVID-19

India

India is in crisis. Be part of the Jewish community’s response to help provide emergency resources to combat the dramatic and devastating wave of COVID-19. The Greater Miami Jewish Federation has established an Emergency Relief Fund to raise money for live-saving medical supplies and telemedicine support for ICU doctors and nurses. Please click here to make a secure donation now. Following the Talmudic teaching in Sanhedrin, “Whoever saves a life is considered as if they saved an entire world,” we are working with our partners The American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee and IsraAid to help secure and distribute critically needed equipment such as ventilators, oxygen concentrators and cylinders, filtered masks and more. With more than 350,000 daily cases — the most of any country at any point during the pandemic — Indian healthcare providers have been crippled with the influx of new patients. Donations checks with the notation “India Emergency” can be mailed to: Greater Miami Jewish Federation, 4200 Biscayne Boulevard, Miami, FL 33137. As always, Federation will absorb all administrative costs so that 100 percent of funds collected will be provided directly to our partners.
