Money will go towards basic necessities like food and medical care for people who were impacted by the attacks along the Gaza border. It will also be used for temporary shelter and relocation costs.

"The fact that someone is contributing sends a message to Israelis that they are not alone in this, that northeast Ohio, that the USA stands with them and so that alone is valuable, so even if you can't give a lot, what you do give sends a message," Jason Wuliger, co-chair of the Israel Emergency Campaign in Cleveland said.

You are able to give on the Jewish Federation's website or over the phone at 216-593-2909.
