KAVOD SHEF

https://kavodensuringdignity.com/kavod-shef-initiative/

Join KAVOD in partnership with Seed The Dream Foundation as we continue our initiative to address the unmet Emergency Services needs of Holocaust Survivors in the United States. 

The KAVOD Survivors of the Holocaust Emergency Fund ( KAVOD SHEF)  initiative recognizes that helping any Survivor, regardless of where they live. 

Recent studies indicate that over 80,000 Holocaust Survivors are living today in the United States—and more than 30,000 are living in or near poverty. The income of these Survivors does not allow them to afford what is needed to live a dignified life. Many are choosing between heat or food, medicine or rent.

KAVOD SHEF exponentially multiplies the dollars and critical services directly reaching Survivors. Leveraging the dollars raised through a special philanthropic national matching initiative, all funds raised will be matched dollar for dollar by the Joseph Gringlas KAVOD SHEF National Fund.  KAVOD is committed to this vital emergency effort and ensuring that 100% of KAVOD SHEF matching funds go directly toward Survivor services as a critical secondary resource.

All funds will be directed toward Emergency Services and allocated through KAVOD to address the following urgent and critical needs: Dental, Vision, Medical, Emergency Rent, Utilities, Home Repair, PPE, Emergency Home Care, and Food.

KAVOD SHEF funds are utilized quickly as a secondary resource to address unmet emergency needs of Survivors in communities throughout the United States. At this time, 34 communities are partners in this effort.
