STAND UNITED FOR ISRAEL — PAINT THE CITY BLUE & WHITE

This week, as we hope and pray for the safe return of all hostages and for an end to suffering, our Toronto Jewish community stands together — united in strength, compassion, and unwavering solidarity with the people of Israel.

Let’s fill our city with blue and white — the colours of hope and resilience — to show that Am Yisrael stands as one.

Three Ways to Show Your Support

1. Paint the City Blue & White

  • Hang Israeli flags from your home, porch, or balcony.
  • Wear blue and white to school, work, and shul.
  • Change your outdoor lights to blue and/or white.
  • Display a downloadable poster in your window.
  • Invite kids to create blue-and-white sidewalk art or hearts of hope.

2. Stand Together in Goodness

  • Do a mitzvah in honour of those still waiting to return home — and in memory of those who cannot.
  • Deliver a meal or flowers to a neighbour.
  • Visit someone who’s feeling isolated.
  • Volunteer or donate to support Israel’s recovery and healing efforts.

3. Share the Message

  • Post your blue-and-white moments and flags on social media.
  • Tag @UJAFederation
  • Update your profile picture with an Israeli flag overlay.
  • Encourage friends and family to join in.

🕊️ Together, we hope to fill Toronto with the colours of hope, unity, and love for Israel.

Am Yisrael Chai.
