Tonight is your last chance to support the Forward in 2021. If our work shaped your views this year, whether by making you think about an issue in a new way, teaching you something you didn’t know before, or helping you feel connected during another incredibly difficult year, join me in making a year-end contribution to power the Forward’s irreplaceable Jewish voice in independent journalism. DONATE NOWThe clock’s running out — make your gift before the ball drops at midnight!
Happy New Year,
Alan Silberstein Board Chair The Forward
P.S. Rachel’s message had even more to say — if you missed it, it’s below. -----Forwarded message-----
From: Rachel Fishman Feddersen, the Forward
I can’t believe we’re reaching the end of another year. When I look back at the beginning of 2021, it feels like it was a different world. Like so many of you, I was full of uncertainty — about what the new presidential administration would bring, how to gather with family for my son’s bar mitzvah in the midst of a COVID-19 surge, and how the emerging news about a vaccine would change our lives.
But as I consider that time, I remember there was one thing I was absolutely sure about: whatever happened in the new year, our team at the Forward would have it covered.
As 2021 comes to a close, now is your chance to support fiercely independent Jewish journalism in the year ahead. SUPPORT OUR WORKI am incredibly proud of our accomplishments in 2021: We won an unprecedented 34 Rockower Awards from the American Jewish Press Association, as well as awards from the Religion News Association, Los Angeles Press Association and the Society for Features Journalism. We launched a new podcast that brings our historic Bintel Brief advice column into the 21st century. We saw the direct impact of our journalism when a Belgian town square removed references honoring Nazis after our investigation into monuments that honor antisemites. We launched our ambitious new morning newsletter Forwarding the News, along with newsletters Forward Reads and Forward with the Arts. We hosted our second virtual gala, Have I Got A Story For You! A Celebration of Jewish American Narratives. Over 2,000 people tuned in and we raised over $200,000!
Your gift can help us continue this work and keep the Forward publishing in 2022 and beyond.
If you’ve already made a gift this year, please know how grateful we are and consider making an end-of-year donation. If you haven’t yet made a donation, now is the perfect time.
Thank you for being a Forward reader and for your commitment to Jewish news that matters.
Sincerely, Rachel Fishman Feddersen The Forward The Forward 125 Maiden Ln. New York, NY 10038 |
