Continuing Our Work in and for Ukraine – Jewish Federation of Greater Washington | CPT PPP Coverage

With a robust infrastructure in the region built over decades before the war, Federation and our partners mobilized immediately to meet emergency needs from day one of the conflict and continue to respond daily. To date, Federation’s Ukraine Emergency Fund and Federations across North America have collectively raised $85 million of the estimated $99 million needed to support those in harm’s way.

Over the last year, you have helped:

• 43,000+ Jewish in Ukraine receive life-saving services and winter survival aid, including subsidies for heat, as well as wood and coal.
• 40,000 Ukrainian refugees flee to neighboring countries by supplying food, medicine, shelter, and guidance in partnership with European Jewish communities.
• 52,500+ Jewish community members from Ukraine, Belarus, and Russia make Aliyah (immigrate to Israel)
• 80,000+ individuals urgently evacuate from danger zones, including through the organization of nearly 500 buses to bring individuals to the Romanian, Polish, Hungarian, and Moldovan borders.

Your donations to our Ukraine Emergency Fund and ongoing support of Federation’s Annual Campaign have saved lives and ensure that we can continue providing essential food, clothing, emergency services, medicine, shelter, and more.

Thank you for your generosity and continued support of The Jewish Federation as we help those who need us, wherever they are.   

Shabbat Shalom,

Gil
