We Stand With Israel

The Greater Miami Jewish Federation is collecting donations for the Israel Emergency Fund to bring critical aid to the people of Israel following the horrific attacks by Hamas. Please click here to make a secure online donation now. Your dollars are already at work in Israel, providing humanitarian assistance to victims and their families. Click here to learn how. Federation is in close contact with more than a dozen of our partners on the ground: first-responders like Magen David Adom and United Hatzalah; organizations specializing in evacuation and relocation along with short- and long-term financial assistance like the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee and The Jewish Agency for Israel; groups focused on trauma response and pyschosocial care like the Israel Trauma Coalition and Nefesh B'Nefesh, and many others. Collectively, our partners have hundreds of years responding to extreme crises. We are grateful to the thousands of individuals who have already donated more than $10 million to the emergency fund. Please help make a difference in the lives of so many by donating now. No amount is too small. One hundred percent of funds donated go to work to help the people of Israel.
