Three Years Later

OUR RESPONSE TO WAR IN UKRAINE

On February 24, 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine, precipitating the worst humanitarian and refugee crisis in Europe since World War II. For years, UJA had supported Jewish communities in the former Soviet Union, including the 200,000 Jews of Ukraine. We were prepared to respond on day one because of our longtime investments.

To date, we’ve
allocated more than
$26 million in
emergency funding.

Where the Dollars Go

We allocated more than $26 Million to 84 Unique Organizations.
