      Georgian Immigrants Receive Jewish Agency Grants


      Georgian Jews who immigrated in the past two weeks to Israel, fleeing the Russian invasion of their homeland, will receive a special grant from the Jewish Agency for Israel, it was announced Sunday.

      According to the statement, each of the 100 immigrants will receive a one-time grant of $1,000 in order to help facilitate their sudden relocation and absorption in their new land.
