Repair the World
A Jewish Response to the catastrophe in Haiti
Rabbi Miller wrote:
"I received an e-mail from an organization called
"Repair the World".
I include an excerpt to provide you with a number of links in case you might wish to respond to the call for help.
With our colleagues in the aid community and partners from the Jewish world, we have identified a number of legitimate, top-quality organizations that can take donations and ensure that they are put to the best possible use. These include:
- Partners in Health, with a long history of working to provide medical services in Haiti; (See Note below)
- American Jewish World Service, provides grants and on-the-ground service around the world to alleviate hunger, poverty and disease;
- American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee, which has nearly 100 years of experience in emergency relief, both in the Jewish community and beyond; and
- Yéle Haiti, which was working on the ground before the latest tragedy to build capacity and raise awareness about Haiti.
Note! Many of you have heard that Hadassah is doing a great job in Haiti. Hadassah works with Partners in Health as mentioned by Rabbi Miller.
