North American Conference on Ethiopian Jewry (NACOEJ)

All the Jews did not make it out of Ethiopia to Israel in Operation Moses (1984)
and Operation Solomon (1991). 20,000 Jews remain! They live in mud huts, they
are starving, and they are outcasts among their non-Jewish neighbors. “This
is the most endangered Jewish community in the world!”
The avoidable disease, malnutrition and death relentlessly pursuing the remaining
Ethiopian Jews can be thwarted, repelled, defeated. Members of NACOEJ are on the
ground in Ethiopia, to feed, clothe, teach, protect our Jewish brothers and sisters
there until they all get to Israel. The pace is slow, only 200 per month get out.
Hopefully that will speed up. In the meantime, this effort represents “nothing
less than a matter of life and death!” NACOEJ reports that Jewish
children are now dying in the Ethiopian famine. The most important Jewish ethic
is pikuach nefesh—saving life. Please, choose to save life!
