Support Rebuilding Beth Israel Congregation in Jackson, Mississippi

Jewish Federations are raising funds to support Congregation Beth Israel in Jackson, Mississippi, following an arson attack on the synagogue. This senseless act caused significant damage to a sacred communal space that has served the Jewish community for generations.



Gifts to this fund will help provide critical resources for rebuilding, restoration, and recovery, ensuring that Congregation Beth Israel can continue to serve as a place of worship, gathering, and Jewish life.

Jewish Federations stand united against hate and in solidarity with the Jackson Jewish community.
