Congregation Kehilath Jeshurun and UJA-Federation of New York are longtime partners in doing good. Right now, with Israel at war and antisemitism surging in New York, reaffirming our commitment to each other and to making an impact is more critical than ever.
The collective generosity of the KJ community means UJA can continue to meet the evolving and emergent needs as the conflict continues in Israel. It means we can keep fueling our fight against antisemitism, securing Jewish institutions and empowering Jewish students on campus. And it also means we can keep caring for New Yorkers in need.
