PHILADELPHIA, PA (CNBNews)--Once again, on a holy day of the Jewish calendar, the people of Israel have come under attack. Once again, the brave military forces of the State of Israel are responding and will defend our beloved Jewish state. And because this is what your Jewish Federation is built for, once again, the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia will support our brothers and sisters as they defend Israel.

As of May 31, the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia has raised $15.8+ million in pledges for urgent humanitarian needs and recovery efforts. We have committed $11.7+ million to help with basic needs, emergency equipment for volunteer first responders, bomb shelters, supplies for the bomb shelters, long-term rebuilding efforts and more. One hundred percent of the money raised will go to Israel. Learn more here.

I appreciate your interest in supporting the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia’s Philly Stands with Israel Fund, an emergency response campaign to provide relief to the people and State of Israel during the current attacks. 100% of the donations are going to support Israel. Payment is requested immediately so that we can distribute the funds as quickly as possible.
