An Interfaith Bridge, Built From Krullers
This Sunday’s New York Times featured a heartwarming story of a Muslim man from Egypt and an Orthodox Jewish woman from Borough Park who built a beautiful business partnership out of two Dunkin’ Donuts franchises in Brooklyn. Since their religions share an antipathy toward pig-consumption, they gave away all their profits from pork products, “hers to her synagogue and to Israel, his to the workers as bonuses.”
Did you know that only 2% of Forward readers donate to support our nonprofit newsroom? That 2% make it possible for millions to read the Forward without a paywall or subscription — removing any barriers to the full and fair Jewish story.
But while the Forward is free to read, it isn’t free to produce. Big stories — like deep dives into the antisemitism data, political scoops or reporting trips to college campuses — take months of research and fact-checking. All while we keep you informed of what you need to know each day.
