The Jews of Ukraine Desperately Need Your Help
The Jews of Ukraine Desperately Need Your Help
Orthodox Union

The attention of the world is riveted on the developing situation in Ukraine. The outbreak of a war that affects the entire country and the region is especially worrisome to the Jewish communities of Ukraine. At this critical time, we must all engage in tefillah (sincere prayer) for world peace, שלום בעולם, and for the safety and vitality of Acheinu Bnai Yisrael, the individuals and communities involved. The Orthodox Union is establishing a Ukraine Crisis Fund that will support the heroic efforts on the ground. 100% of proceeds will go to the cause.
