Rescue and Resettlement of Refugees

As a community of refugees from the Holocaust, we are particularly concerned about the fate of persecuted Jews across the world. The UJO along with Rav Tov and other governmental and NGO partners including the State Department and USICS have worked on the rescue and resettlement of Russian, Iranian, Yemenite and other Jewish communities who faced danger in their home countries.
