The Jewish Federation (2011 Japan Earthquake/Tsunami - RELIEF FUND)

In response to the massive earthquake in Japan and the devastation it has caused, our Federation is mobilizing the community and accepting donations to help the victims and their families. Our international partners have already begun deploying rescue personnel and emergency medical officers and are assessing the critical, immediate needs in the hardest-hit areas.

We are reaching out to and working in partnership with our local Japanese-American community to find out how our Federation can be of assistance. Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has pledged Israel’s assistance in the wake of this natural disaster.

Please join us in our efforts by making a donation now to help meet the immediate needs of the victims and their families:

100 percent of collected donations will be distributed to our network of partners and our Federation will absorb all administrative costs.

Watching the news footage of the earthquake and the damage it caused is heartbreaking. We mourn for all the victims and their loved ones, as well as everyone who has been hurt or displaced. We can only begin to imagine what they must be feeling. That’s why when a crisis arises, our Federation is there on our community’s behalf to make sure that people in urgent need are assisted immediately.
