JEWISH. INDEPENDENT. NONPROFIT.

Support Jewish Journalism On This Giving Tuesday

Giving Tuesday” was first coined in 2012, by the Belfer Center for Innovation & Social Impact at the 92nd Street Y, aiming to connect “diverse groups of individuals, communities and organizations around the world for one common purpose: to celebrate and encourage giving.”

Every year, on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving and shopping events Black Friday and Cyber Monday, #GivingTuesday re-directs us from shopping to giving, kicking off the charitable season, when many start thinking about holiday and end-of-year giving.

We at the Forward are proud to be part of this initiative. As a non-profit media organization, we rely on readers’ support to continue doing our independent journalism.

Join us on this global day of giving, fueled by the power of social media, by ensuring that our work — telling the Jewish community’s stories — goes on.

A message from our Publisher & CEO Rachel Fishman Feddersen

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning, nonprofit journalism during this critical time.

We’ve set a goal to raise $260,000 by December 31. That’s an ambitious goal, but one that will give us the resources we need to invest in the high quality news, opinion, analysis and cultural coverage that isn’t available anywhere else.

If you feel inspired to make an impact, now is the time to give something back. Join us as a member at your most generous level.

—  Rachel Fishman Feddersen, Publisher and CEO

With your support, we’ll be ready for whatever 2025 brings.
