Will you step forward to help people in the Bahamas whose lives have been devastated by Hurricane Dorian?<\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n

You\u2019ve seen the heartbreaking news reports: Several lives have been lost or are missing. Thousands more are without homes. Nearly everyone is struggling to access even the most basic needs.<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

During times of disaster, our community joins together to care for the vulnerable. This is a reflection of one of our core Jewish values,\u00a0tikkun olam<\/em> (repair the world). Jewish Federation of Palm Beach County is teaming up with a network of partners to support those in need in the Bahamas and help them recover from this devastating storm.<\/span><\/p>\n

We are grateful that our local community has been spared the most devastating effects of Hurricane Dorian, and we are monitoring the storm\u2019s track in order to assess its impact on other communities.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
