"The return of the hostages is something we’ve been awaiting for 467 days, and I am incredibly hopeful to see families starting to reunite within the next few days. The road ahead is still long, and there are many challenges that we will face, however, being able to see people return home is a small light in what seems to have been a time of darkness.

My time in KC has so far been shaped by the longing and hope for the return of the hostages. It is clear that our community cares deeply about all 98 and has been praying for their return.”

-Community Shalicha Mika Kislanski on the Israeli hostage release deal

Wildfires across Greater Los Angeles have displaced tens of thousands, caused immense destruction, and tragically claimed lives. Jewish institutions, including a 100-year-old synagogue, are among those deeply affected.

Jewish Federations in Los Angeles, Ventura County, and San Gabriel and Pomona Valleys have opened a Wildfire Crisis Relief Fund to provide critical assistance to those impacted.

Your support ensures aid reaches Jewish communities and others in need during this devastating time.
