Solidarity with Israel

Following are a few tips on How to Help Israel:

  1. Stand Up and Be Counted: Call your state and district representatives to let them know you support their stand on Israel. Senator Boxer has been receiving 2-1 calls AGAINST Israel.
  2. Be proactive in responses to Anti-Israel editorials and letters to the editor. Respond by writing the newspapers.
  3. GO to Israel.
  4. Donate a financial gift to help those in need in Israel:
    • Via the web: www.sfjcf.org to learn more or to donate online.
    • By check to Jewish Community Federation (write Israel Emergency Fund in the memo line) and mail to the JCF, 121 Steuart Street, San Francisco, CA 94105 or
    • By Phone: 415/777-0411 and use your credit card.
  5. Get others involved - be united - continue communications.
  6. Be personal: Contact your Israeli friends and relatives, let them know we are behind them.
