Greater Miami Jewish Federation Sets Up Hurricane Irma Fund


Since 2015, Joshua Wander has served as the managing partner of 777 Partners in Miami, Florida. He is also the founder of SuttonPark Capital in Miami, Florida, and the president of First Sustainable, LLC, in Westport, Connecticut. Outside of work, Joshua Wander supports several charitable organizations, including the Greater Miami Jewish Federation.

Established more than 75 years ago, the Greater Miami Jewish Federation unites members through philanthropy and community building. The organization works with individuals in Miami-Dade County to strengthen the Jewish identity. 

In addition, the Jewish Federation raises money to fund local agencies, including Jewish community centers, day schools, and religious schools. The organization also supports programs in more than 70 other countries.

To help those affected by Hurricane Irma, the Greater Miami Jewish Federation reached out to its members to offer care to both the Jewish and general communities. The organization encouraged volunteers to call or email the Jewish Volunteers Center. The Jewish Federation also formed an emergency relief fund to help with the urgent needs of residents.
