Continue to Support Your Local Jewish Institutions

support

Since the pandemic began, Federation has distributed $4 milion in emergency grants to individuals and institutions throughout our Jewish community. However, the organizations we rely on to sustain Jewish life depend on all of us to survive. Our synagogues, day schools and agencies serve as an extension of our family, keeping us connected to our traditions, values and teachings. Even though we cannot gather as before, these same organizations are critical to the wellbeing of all of us. And, when the COVID-19 crisis ends, we will all want the promise of a strong and vibrant Jewish future that only these institutions can provide for us, our children and grandchildren. If you're able to, please, continue your child's Jewish education, your synagogue and JCC memberships and support of other local Jewish institutions. Stay involved with the organizations you care deeply about and are so much a part of your life. Together, we can ensure these mainstays of our Miami Jewish community will be able to withstand the economic consequences of this pandemic. We are stronger together. We need each other and our Jewish community institutions need us. If you or someone you know is struggling, please remember you are not alone. Federation is here to help.
