Add a Name to Our Moment of Reflection<\/strong><\/p>

As we gather to celebrate 50 years of Action for Post-Soviet Jewry, we will also take a moment to honor those no longer with us\u2014those whose passion, perseverance, and dedication helped lay the foundation for all we do today. Their memory continues to guide and inspire our work, reminding us that every act of service is part of a much larger story.<\/p>

If there is someone you would like us to remember during this brief reflection, we invite you to share their name(s) and their connection to Action.<\/p>

Please email<\/a> us at celebratingaction@actionpsj.org<\/a><\/strong> by Wednesday, April 2<\/strong>. Together, we will lift their legacy with gratitude and love.<\/p>

Yesterday, Dnipro was hit hard by a severe Russian attack.<\/strong><\/p>

We are relieved to share that our friends and colleagues are safe. The Menorah Center, the synagogue, schools, and the Jewish Medical Center were not physically damaged. [Click here to see a news report.<\/a>]<\/p>

But the violence of this war is intensifying\u2014and it\u2019s getting closer to the communities and people we care for and care about. The trauma is growing, and so is the need.<\/p>

Your generosity matters more than ever.<\/strong> Every donation, every gesture of solidarity, helps us respond with compassion, resources, and hope. Thank you for standing with us and with the people of Ukraine.<\/p>

As we celebrate 50 years of commitment to this region and its people, we also look ahead.<\/strong>
The work is not done. The needs remain urgent.<\/p>

Let us honor the past by preparing for the future.<\/p>

Let\u2019s turn memory into mission.<\/strong><\/p>

Together, we can carry forward the legacy of compassion, connection, and care\u2014into the next 50 years and beyond.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Join us at our upcoming event<\/strong>, (RSVP’s –will be wait listed <\/a>)<\/em> We look forward to honoring Judy Patkin, Barbara Karchmer, Bob Gordon, and Marlene and David Bohn along with our valued organizational partners, Combined Jewish Philanthropies and The Rashi School.

Please join us in celebrating these inspiring individuals and organizations that have shaped our past and continue to guide our future:

Together, let’s continue this remarkable journey. Honoring our past, shaping our future\u2014because every action counts.<\/p>


Warm regards,<\/p>
