A delegation from Jewish Federation of Greater Charlotte and Greensboro Jewish Federation traveled to Washington, DC this week as part of a national fly-in with Jewish Federations of North America Together, we met with lawmakers - including Rep. Virginia Foxx, Congressman Tim Moore, Congressman Pat Harrigan, Senator Ted Budd, Senator Thom Tillis, Mark Harris and more - to advocate for the safety & security of Jewish communities at home and abroad. At the heart of these conversations: Jewish Federations of North America's Six-Point Security Plan, which includes increasing support for the Nonprofit Security Grant Program and protecting Jewish life across the U.S. and in Israel (fb)

We’re not just living in a time of information overload. We’re living in a time of deliberate distortion. Viral lies. Out-of-context headlines. AI-generated propaganda. When it comes to Israel, truth is under attack. That’s why understanding Israel matters—especially now. Because staying informed isn’t passive. It’s how we fight back. At Jewish Federation of Greater Charlotte, we believe knowledge is a form of resistance. When we know the facts, we can speak out, stand tall, and push back against the noise. Don’t scroll past the truth. Learn it. Share it. Defend it. #JCRC #JewishCharlotte #IsraelEducation #KnowTheFacts #CounterMisinformation (fb)
