The United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism is deeply saddened by the tragic loss of lives and the devastation caused by the earthquake in Haiti. We have set up a fund for donations toward relief efforts for the earthquake victims. Donations can be made online at http://www.uscj.org/donate/relief.
