Temple Sholom Rabbi sparks $40,000 refugee sponsorship in Vancouver
Rabbi Dan Moskovitz of Temple Sholom mobilized his Vancouver congregation to sponsor a Syrian refugee family. Funds quickly reached $40,000, with Mosaic, the Jewish Federation of Vancouver, and the Anglican Diocese joining. He frames the effort as a moral obligation to love the stranger and build cross faith bridges while acknowledging security concerns. He hopes this micro-scale action can foster peace and understanding among Jews, Syrians, and broader Canadian society.
