The Jewish Federation of the Bluegrass strongly condemns the Russian invasion of Ukraine and is deeply concerned for the well-being of the country’s entire population, including the Jewish community.
The Jewish Federations of North America (JFNA) is working to get help to those in need as quickly as possible through our partner organizations, The Jewish Agency for Israel, JDC, and World ORT, which have mobilized their extensive operations on the ground.
Plans now in motion rely on the strong presence built up through years of Federation support that is today serving as a critical lifeline to help protect and safeguard Ukraine’s Jewish community, the many important Jewish organizations working in Ukraine, as well as Jews in neighboring countries.
We pray for safety for all, and for a speedy end to the hostilities.
