POVERTY.

But your generosity can
make all the difference.

For those hit hardest by the pandemic, this crisis is far from over.

One in three Torontonians struggle to pay for essentials like rent and food.1 2021 will bring the highest ever annual increase in the cost of groceries.2 We’re seeing a dangerous and growing mental health crisis.

For many in our Jewish community, their crisis won’t end when the pandemic does. But with your generous support, UJA’s network of life-saving Jewish social service agencies can make all the difference.

Your gift to UJA's Annual Campaign will ensure those still struggling have the help they need when they need it most.

There’s no one program that can meet these challenges alone.


But through our UJA-funded Jewish social safety net, we provide a full range of services to those struggling so they can get back on their feet.
