Holocaust Survivors

The Holocaust Survivor Program helps to improve the quality of life for Holocaust survivors in the greater Tampa Bay area by providing critically needed, in-home care, emergency financial assistance, case management services, prescription drug and medical assistance funds, transportation, social events (virtual and in-person), and other essential services to prevent out-of-home placement.

Holocaust Survivor Urgent Care Fund

Make an impact through the Holocaust Survivor Urgent Care Fund. Gulf Coast JFCS assists nearly 300 local Holocaust Survivors who require varying levels of assistance for essential daily living activities. For many, the high costs of medical and home care have depleted their financial reserves resulting in a significant gap in care without our assistance. Funds raised will be directed to their most urgent care needs. In partnership with the Jewish Federation of Florida’s Gulf Coast, funds raised are match dollar for dollar by Kavod SHEF. To support local Holocaust Survivors, visit Holocaust Survivor Fund - Gulf Coast JFCS (gulfcoastjewishfamilyandcommunityservices.org)
