Baton Rouge Flood Relief

Baton Rouge Flood Relief 2016 Relentless flooding has devastated southern Louisiana, now a federal disaster area. Following severe storms, rising waters have killed at least 7, destroyed countless homes and forced tens of thousands to flee for their lives—including Federation staff and many from the local Jewish community. The Jewish Federation of Greater Pittsburgh is raising funds to support the Jewish Federation of Greater Baton Rouge as they meet urgent needs. Because the ongoing flooding is so widespread, we are still working to understand the full impact of the disaster. One hundred percent of your donation to will go to the Baton Rouge Flood Relief Fund.
