Congregation Kehilath Jeshurun and UJA-Federation of New York are longtime partners in doing good, and together we can reaffirm our commitment to the values that bind us: tzedakah, chesed, and kehilla.
Ongoing support from you and the KJ community means UJA can continue to positively impact millions of lives each year in New York, in Israel, and around the world. It’s how we are able to take on multiple issues at the same time: tackling antisemitism. Providing food and mental health services to those dealing with the pandemic’s ongoing toll. Sending critical humanitarian aid to the Jewish community and beyond in Ukraine. Your gift makes it possible for us to be there and respond to ongoing challenges and emerging issues — always ready for what comes next.
We have the potential to do so much good. Here are some of the critical services you can provide:
- $1,800 can provide vital supplemental support for a homebound Holocaust survivor living on a fixed income
- $1,500 can alleviate isolation for 24 low-income older adults through Selfhelp’s Virtual Senior Center
- $1,000 can provide a bullet-proof vest for a security volunteer in Israel at a Jewish institution that has recently been the target of an antisemitic attack
- $500 can enable a child from a single-parent family to receive a Jewish summer camp experience
- $360 can provide school supplies for 20 children
- $180 can provide a Shabbat meal for ten college students
