Mount Carmel Cemetery Solidarity
Donation protected
On February 26th, 2017, the Mount Carmel Cemetery in Philadelphia was found to have been vandalized. This is the most recent of a series of hateful acts that have befallen the Jewish community in our country recently. Let us stand up together and show that love and community will triumph over hate and bigotry.
I want to make sure that I am entirely transparent. I am a private individual raising these funds. I am not associated with any organization and I am not associated directly with the cemetery.
All funds will be donated directly to The Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia, who are independently raising funds for the Mount Carmel Cemetery in Philadelphia, as they are not an organization set up to recieve funds independently.
You are encouraged to donate to them directly, in order to avoid the fees associated with GoFundMe at:

UPDATE - Mt. Carmel Cemetery: Thank you to the community for all of your continued help and support.
If you are interested in volunteer opportunities to help with the repairs, please email - [email redacted] with your information and we will follow up when details are finalized. Please SHARE to spread the word.
A note from The Jewish Federation:
"Right now we are collecting the money as we know this will be a significant cost. The cemetery will be taking the lead and we will direct the money to them to help pay their bills. At this time the specific details other than that have not been determined, however the details will be available as we continue to work with the cemetery in the coming days. "
