Next time
the sirens sounds and

How will you
Respond?
The summer of 2018 was a time of intensified violence for thousands of Israelis living along the borders of Gaza and Syria. Just one kilometer from Gaza, UJA’s partner community of Sderot faced:
1,120+ rockets launched from Gaza in 2018
Rocket damage to a synagogue and the wounding of three people, including two young girls
A kindergarten hit by a mortar shell minutes before the children arrived
Over 1,400 kite balloon arson attacks in the past three months
