Federation Overseas Partners Help Ukrainians Find Safety and Refuge

The worst humanitarian crisis since World War II continues as millions of Ukrainians flee from Russia’s horrific aggression. Those left behind are struggling to survive as basic necessities become scarce. The Jewish community is providing critical lifesaving aid to Ukrainians in need and helping many find safety in Israel. The compassion and care have been extraordinary, thanks to the work of the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee, The Jewish Agency for Israel, World ORT and IsraAid, all of which are supported by Federation.
