It is the season of giving, and many Jewish not-for-profit organizations are receiving financial assistance from benefactors like you. To provide a better accounting of where your donation money may be going, we present to you the Forward’s eighth salary survey. Below, you will find the reportable compensation information about the executives of the largest Jewish national not-for-profit organizations in America. You can click on the name of each organization’s executive for more information.
After crunching the numbers, we have found recurring trends. Since our last salary survey, the gender gap at Jewish non-profits has only widened and a few non-profit executives are receiving extraordinary payouts. You can read further about our methodology in collecting and compiling this financial data here.
As our editor-in-chief Jane Eisner said in 2015, “If you are a volunteer at one of these organizations, a client, a donor, an employer or an employee — you deserve this information.”

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.
