(Jewish Federation of Cleveland)
In response to the horrific terror attacks in France, including the murder of four Jews at a kosher supermarket, the Jewish Federation of Cleveland is opening a French Terror and Security Fund to address the challenges and threats facing the French Jewish community.
Working with national partner, Jewish Federations of North America (JFNA) and international partners Joint Distribution Committee (JDC) and the Jewish Agency for Israel (JAFI), the Cleveland Federation has been tracking and responding to events in Paris as they occur. In coordination with the French government and the Service de Protection de la Communauté Juive in France, the organizations are working to ensure that local Jewish institutions, schools, and synagogues as well as French Jewish citizens are protected from further attacks.
