Happy Purim, Friend!

The Forward has been telling the American Jewish story since 1897. While we may not have been around to cover Haman and Queen Esther, we’re still here, over 100 years later, fearlessly reporting on the whole megillah. 

So before you pack your mischloach manot or put on a costume, take a moment to also power independent Jewish journalism: donate to the Forward right now.

That way, we can continue to expand the best in Jewish journalism to Los Angeles, Chicago, Boston and South Florida, and bring you not just the most important national stories, but the crucial stories from your own communities as well.  

The Forward brings you superb reporting, as well as the finest coverage of culture in the Jewish world and provocative opinions from the widest variety of perspectives — and we need that more now than ever before.

Help make that possible this week as part of your Purim celebration: make your first gift and become a donor to the Forward today.

Sincerely,
 

Rob Eshman
