Domestic and Global Support in an Emergency

WNC Jewish Federation works in conjunction with UJC and the Joint Distribution Committee (JDC) to collect funds quickly and disburse through these agencies when a natural disaster hits at home or abroad, if a crisis arises in Israel or if Jews are threatened at any place in the world where immediate, emergency funds are needed.

Meeting the Needs of Those in Need

There are humanitarian emergencies all over the world affecting Jews and non-Jews alike. UJC and its partners take seriously their ethical responsibility to ensure the welfare of all people. While there is still much to be done, our work on behalf of those in need has literally touched thousands and thousands around the globe.
