Why Federation?
To keep Jewish Miami safe amid rising extremism and antisemitism, Federation’s Office of Community Security works with 160 essential Jewish institutions.
Today, 1 in 5 people in Miami’s Jewish community depends on Federation for some form of financial assistance or access to Jewish life — up 60 percent from just a few years ago.
Europe is facing the greatest humanitarian crisis since World War II, with many Ukrainians in the Jewish community fleeing for the safety and security of Israel. One hundred thousand are expected to make aliyah in 2023.
