DAY // WAY 35: Practice Tzedakah

Meet Anton, Vira, and Alexey.

They could be your neighbors, members of your synagogue, or the family you see down the street and wave to in passing.

What you don’t know is that Anton, Vira, and Alexey live a world away in Pavlograd—along with 3,000 other displaced persons—in a Federation-funded center.

Unlike most of us, they will celebrate Pesach in their temporary home just a few dozen miles from the frontline of escalating violence in Ukraine. Forced to flee their home for safety, they are just a few of the young, middle-class families that now occupy this center, receiving food, medicine, and whatever else they need to feel safe and secure in these uncertain times.

You can help Anton, Vira, Alexey, and others just like them with a gift to Federation. Because we are all responsible for one another.
