TUESDAY AT 6 P.M.

Boca Raton, FL – The Jewish Federation of South Palm Beach County invites the community to show its support for Israel at a Community Solidarity Event.

Across the country and around the world, communities are organizing gatherings of solidarity for Israel, as it engages in a war that has already claimed hundreds of lives and has witnessed the abduction of hundreds more.

Federation and Synagogue leaders will lead guests through prayers and song. Federation partners from Israel are planning to join remotely or are sharing video messages.

Currently, Jewish Federation of South Palm Beach County has launched an Israel Emergency Campaign to help families and children in danger; to provide food and medicine for the elderly and disabled; to assist victims of physical and emotional trauma; and to find safe haven for all in harm’s way.

“While we stand in full solidarity as Israel responds to these attacks, greater action is necessary to help address the increasing humanitarian needs on the ground. We are working with our partners to ensure that these emergency funds get to those in need quickly,” said Matt Levin, president and CEO, Jewish Federation of SPBC.

100% of the funds will go to support Federation’s work in Israel.
