Health-care workers risking infection every day. Volunteers supporting organizations that care for the most vulnerable. Clergy getting creative about how to counsel the grieving, the ill, the lonely. That neighbor who is organizing virtual playdates for the whole block, picking up extra ingredients at the store, or otherwise making this crisis a little more livable.
They’re everyday heroes in our midst, and the Forward is honoring their stories.
If you know someone doing something extraordinary during this most extraordinary time, please take a few moments to fill out the form below. We hope to publish a series of vignettes about these miracle-makers in the coming days.
It’s our birthday and we’re still celebrating!
We hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, we’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s independent Jewish news.
This week we celebrate 129 years of the Forward. We’re proud of our origins as a Yiddish print publication serving Jewish immigrants. And we’re just as proud of what we’ve become today: A trusted source of Jewish news and opinion, available digitally to anyone in the world without paywalls or subscriptions.
We’ve helped five generations of American Jews make sense of the news and the world around them — and we aren’t slowing down any time soon.
As a nonprofit newsroom, reader donations make it possible for us to do this work. Support independent, agenda-free Jewish journalism and our board will match your gift in honor of our birthday!
Support our mission to tell the Jewish story fully and fairly.
