FJMC: Supporting Masorti Response to the Chile Earthquake

Fellow Men's Club Members:

 

As you know, the country of Chile has suffered through one of the worst earthquakes ever recorded.  The FJMC has recently affiliated a Men's Club in a congregation in Santiago, and fortunately there was little, if any, damage to that synagogue or to the properties of its congregants.  We have received word, however, that a Masorti congregation in Concepcion, close to the epicenter of the earthquake, was severely damaged.

 

In response to the damages incurred for our Masorti brothers in Chile, the FJMC Foundation for Jewish Life, which has funded many FJMC activities over the years, has approved a grant of $1,000 for relief efforts for the Jewish community in Chile, and those funds are being sent to Masorti Olami to be distributed through its Chile Earthquake Relief Fund. 

 

The Foundation also requests that those of you wishing to make a contribution send it through Masorti Olami at its website www.masortiworld.org.
