Federation Reaches Out to Those Affected by Hurricane Sandy

As is our tradition in the case of widespread emergencies and natural disasters, our Bay Area Jewish community stands ready to respond and to help those most affected regardless of religious affiliation, just as we did with Hurricane Katrina and the Haiti earthquake.

Hurricane Sandy is a storm of unprecedented magnitude and breadth, affecting the Eastern portion of the United States. Our local Jewish community and our Federation movement sends our prayers and offers our support to the millions affected by the hurricane. We encourage those who are able to donate to the SF-based Federation's Sandy Emergency Relief Fund by clicking on the link below and we will continue to update you with respect to relief, rebuilding, and the impact of your contributions.

You may also send checks to the Jewish Community Federation and Endowment Fund at 121 Steuart Street, San Francisco, California, 94105, with "JCF Sandy Relief Fund" clearly marked on the checks. Thank you for your consideration of those affected and for joining us in sending prayers and resources to all of those affected by Hurricane Sandy.
