We’re raising support for Hatzola voluntary ambulance service to demonstrate Christian support for the UK’s Jewish community
CUFI stands in solidarity with Britain’s Jewish community following the horrific antisemitic arson attack on four ambulances belonging to Hatzola, a Jewish volunteer organisation.
This was an evil act that sadly epitomises the problem of Jew-hatred that exists in the UK. It looks like a scene from a conflict-zone, but rather, it happened in a London neighbourhood, where Jews just want to live peacefully and securely.
Words of solidarity are meaningful, but they are not enough. As a nation, we have allowed anti-Jewish rhetoric to go unchallenged; we have created an environment that breeds toxicity towards Israel, and we have watched as Jews have become demonised, libelled and scapegoated. This has to stop.
It is incumbent upon Christians in this nation to take action. Today, we would like to demonstrate that Jews in this country are not alone. We want to comfort the Jewish people at this time, especially because we know that this attack is certainly not an isolated incident.
CUFI has set up a fundraising campaign to make a contribution to Hatzola’s restoration. Our aim is to show this fantastic voluntary organisation, and the wider Jewish community, that Christians stand shoulder-to-shoulder with them. By giving through CUFI, your donation will form a collective donation that we will be making to Hatzola to demonstrate this Christian support. So, please give today.
