Rebuild Israel

Following the horrific October 7th terrorist attacks, Jewish Federations urgently responded, raising $873 million for needs on the ground. Through Rebuild Israel, we pledge our long-term commitment to Israel's safety and prosperity, helping restore livelihoods, provide trauma support, repair critical infrastructure, and create opportunities for connection and joy.

Our Work in Ukraine

As war forced nearly 10 million Ukrainians from their homes, Jewish Federations mobilized our global network, raising over $90 million for essential needs, including meals, medical care, clothing, and mental health support, while helping thousands of refugees resettle around the world.

We can't express how much it means to us that we have support overseas. It really connects our Jewish heritage together.
