Because of You, We Are Strengthening Israel Through Partnership & Hope

March 4, 2026

Across Israel’s northern region—from the border town of Shlomi to the partnership communities of Yokneam and Megiddo—Atlanta’s Jewish community is making a real difference.

Through the Jewish Federation, your generosity is helping strengthen communities, support families, and build lasting connections between Atlanta and Israel.

Watch the video below to see this partnership in action.

The Impact of Your Support

Because of you:

  • Ethiopian-Israeli youth are thriving, with an 84% graduation rate, 98% enlistment rate, and 0% dropout rate.
  • Families facing hardship find safety and stability in warm homes—including the first residential home created specifically for boys.
  • Nearly 2,000 evacuees after October 7 found not just shelter, but a caring community.
  • Survivors, first responders, and displaced families received critical mental health care and emergency aid.
  • Connections between Atlanta, St. Louis, and Israel continue to grow through school twinning, family hosting, and lifelong relationships.

The impact of this decades-long partnership has even been recognized by the President of Israel.

You Are Part of Israel
