CJP’s Israel Emergency Fund

As soon as we realized here in Boston what was happening on the ground in Israel, we leapt into action, mobilizing our community to respond immediately and help mitigate the unprecedented devastation and trauma for victims of the war. Through CJP’s Israel Emergency Fund, we are demonstrating
Boston’s steadfast commitment to and solidarity with Israel and its people in times of crisis. Our community has given generously and allowed us to make an incredible impact on those amid war and helping Israel rebuild for a better tomorrow.

Our Israel Emergency Fund Task Force is meeting regularly to make recommendations for ongoing distribution of money raised, and CJP is making grants directly to critical NGO partners on the ground who support the people of Israel during this time. We are also working closely with Jewish Federations of North America (JFNA) and directing our support through them to fund large-scale critical needs alongside other federations.
