With the Russian invasion now underway and multiple locations under fire, support for the Jewish community is needed urgently.
Because our Federation partners, the Jewish Agency for Israel and Joint Distribution Committee (JDC) were already on the ground doing critical work, day in and day out, for Ukraine’s Jewish community – we were able to quickly mobilize.

Immediate and short-term needs that are being addressed include:

• Helping people make Aliyah to Israel
• Securing the local community and its institutions
• Maintaining critical welfare services
• Assisting internally displaced people in multiple locations
• Providing medical equipment to the Ukraine Health system
• Securing temporary housing for people in transit
• Providing food, medicine, and cash for those sheltering in Ukraine
• Maintaining hotlines for jews in the regions and their families in Israel

Here at home, we are committed to supporting the Ukranian people in the longer journey to recovery and a better future. Donations will now also help to welcome and resettle Ukrainians who have been impacted by the conflict and are seeking to build a new life in Manitoba.
