‘28 Days, 28 Ideas’: A Better Future for Jewish Women and Girls
The Sisterhood blog began in 2009 with an idea to create a forum where Jewish women — from across ideological and denominational spectrums, in different cities and stages of life — could come together to discuss the issues impacting their lives. We’re enormously proud of how the conversation has taken shape, and the unlikely common ground that it has unearthed.
The Sisterhood is, therefore, a natural venue for exploring the ideas that have the potential to improve the lives of Jewish women and girls. That is why we have joined forces with six other blogs and organizational partners, which, during the month of February, will be putting forth ideas (of all sorts, not just those that focus on Jewish women) to transform the Jewish future. The project is called “28 Days, 28 Ideas” — and it’s an outgrowth of Jewish blogging pioneer Daniel Sieradski’s recent “31 Days, 31 Ideas.”
Here’s a schedule of where a wide variety of ideas will be published during the next 28 days:
Monday: The Fundermentalist at JTA
Tuesday: Jewcy
Wednesday: eJewishphilanthropy
Thursday: The Sisterhood
Friday: Jewish Federations of North America
Saturday (Motzei Shabbat): 31 Days, 31 Ideas
Sunday: Jewschool
Be sure to check out the first installment of “28 Days, 28 Ideas” here on Monday, February 1, and to become a fan of the project on Facebook.

This is a moment of great uncertainty for the news media, for the Jewish people, and for our sacred democracy. It is a time of confusion and declining trust in public institutions. An era in which we need humans to report facts, conduct investigations that hold power to account, tell stories that matter and share honest discourse on all that divides us.
With no paywall or subscriptions, the Forward is entirely supported by readers like you. Every dollar you give this Passover is invested in the future of the Forward — and telling the American Jewish story fully and fairly.
The Forward doesn’t rely on funding from institutions like governments or your local Jewish federation. There are thousands of readers like you who give us $18 or $36 or $100 each month or year.
Support our mission to tell the Jewish story fully and fairly.
