GRATITUDE FROM THE COMMUNITY
"Thank you for this important and life-sustaining act of generosity. These funds will be so important to many in our community in the days to come — those wrestling with job loss and mounting bills, those struggling to make ends meet in normal circumstances, those in need of extra supplies — and I appreciate your assistance on their behalf."
"As usual, the Jewish Federation of Greater Pittsburgh has risen to the challenge of the times. You were there during the tragedy of the Tree of Life Synagogue shooting and again you are with during the COVID-19 pandemic."
"I want to thank you for the grant. I am thrilled with how our partnership is helping to provide food on a daily basis for hundreds of families during this medical and economic crisis."
"We are so thankful for the distribution that will enable us to purchase a van that will not only allow us to deliver items from the food pantry to those with food insecurity but also assist in meeting other critical needs of our organization. We whole-heartedly concur that working together we can continue to help our community meet its need and grow stronger."
"Your hard work and dedication to the Jewish Association on Aging is inspiring. Thank you. You have enabled us to make the JAA a safe place to live and work."
"Despite the tremendous challenges that we have been experiencing, our Federation has repeatedly taken on a leadership role by demonstrating flexibility, creativity and forward-thinking at moments when others might be paralyzed by indecision and uncertainty."
"Thank you for caring to keep Jewish life on campus strong in every way."
"Thank you for your patience and your continued support in our efforts to mobilize Jews and their communities to take action to pursue a just world and ignite a lifelong commitment to service."
"I wanted to echo Mike’s email and extend my personal thanks and appreciation for the generous support of the Federation COVID-19 Emergency Fund."
