The Jewish Federation of Greater New Orleans prays for the success of the joint United States and Israeli actions in Iran, and for the safety of the brave members of the U.S. Armed Forces and the Israel Defense Forces carrying them out. 

The Jewish Federation has always been at the forefront of fighting for social justice, civil rights, anti-bigotry, and community strength. Your commitment enables us to expand outreach, provide essential services, and foster connections that uplift us all.

I hope everyone enjoyed their Mardi Gras. As many of you know, the Jewish holiday of Purim is also fast approaching. This year, I’m reminded of how closely our celebrations can overlap in spirit with those of our neighbors.
