Double the Impact of Your Donation Through the Ukraine Relief Challenge Fund

With your help, Federation and our overseas partner the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee, The Jewish Agency for Israel, World ORT and others have been able to bring hundreds of thousands of people to safety in the face of the ongoing war in Ukraine. This critical life-saving assistance includes distributing 538 tons of medical equipment, clothing, food and hygiene products; feeding nearly 175,000 people; evacuating more than 80,556 Ukrainians away from war-torn danger zones; answering more than 110,000 emergency calls for help; and bringing 18,000 new immigrants to Israel. But there is more work to be done. A generous donor from our community has offered to MATCH EVERY CONTRIBUTION, DOLLAR FOR DOLLAR, donated to our Ukraine Relief Challenge Fund. One hundred percent of funds are going directly to our overseas partners working diligently on the ground in Ukraine and the surrounding region.
