Emergency Response: Supporting our Montreal Jewish Community
In response to the devastating attacks in Israel, Federation CJA has acted swiftly and decisively to extend a helping hand to our Israeli brethren. Within a mere 24 hours of these tragic events, we initiated the Israel Emergency Fund, a rallying cry answered with an astounding $14 million in contributions from the Montreal Jewish community. These vital funds have already been dispatched to Israel, offering much-needed aid to victims and their families.
But our commitment doesn't stop there. Federation CJA has mobilized resources to provide support to Jewish students on campuses, teenagers, young adults, families with young children, and Jewish day schools. We're also gathering supplies for IDF soldiers and creating a central hub for community initiatives. Our unwavering promise is to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Israel during these challenging times.
Furthermore, we are proud to collaborate with other organizations like CSUQ, YM-YWHA, Ometz, CBB, Cummings, and more, who are also taking steps to support and strengthen our Montreal Jewish community during this challenging time.
