GIVE TODAY and DOUBLE YOUR IMPACT!

Dear Friends,

As the end of the year approaches, we reach out at a critical moment to ask for your support and your generosity.

For almost 90 years, the Jewish Community Relations Council of St. Louis has convened the broadest range of perspectives in the Jewish community - and is one of the best known civic and faith-based partners in the St. Louis region.


Together, we are building alliances for a more just and safer community - for all. 

At JCRC, we believe that pluralism matters and that the time-tested way to counter antisemitism is with respectful dialogue and coalition building. 

JCRC stands strong for the Jewish community and shows up for other communities in their time of need. Finding common ground, building bridges, and cultivating long standing relationships that have stood the test of time. That is JCRC. 


Programs like Student to Student, the Aurelia Konrad Interfaith Seder, and our Rekindle Black-Jewish Fellowship - turn strangers into neighbors, and neighbors into allies. Our work makes the entire community stronger, allows us to face adversity together, and charts the course for a better future for the Jewish community - and all of St. Louis.

At a time when dollars are scarce, and independent JCRCs all over the country are seeing their dollars from Federated giving decrease - now more than ever - we need your help to do this important work! 


• This year, please consider giving directly to JCRC with dollars you set aside for your Jewish community giving.

• If you have a Donor Advised Fund (DAF) - please designate JCRC as a recipient this year.
  
• Please also consider creating an Endowment or Legacy Gift to help sustain the work of JCRC.

• Also, a Monthly Debit is a great way to support JCRC throughout the year!

With Your Support - we can continue the programs, advocacy, and coalition building that has positioned JCRC as a leader in the Jewish community's public affairs, civic engagement, and interfaith relations work.


With Your Support - we can continue convening the broadest coalition of Jewish voices in the region.

With Your Support - we can continue to run vital programs like Student to Student, where we train over 100 student leaders a year to challenge prejudice one one classroom at a time - in over 45 St. Louis area schools a year.

JCRC is building deep partnerships throughout

St. Louis at a time when these relationships are more important than ever.


Your contributions DO make a difference and help us broaden our impact in the wider community.

• $2500 can support training and development for our groundbreaking Student to Student program.
• $2000 can fund our next Rekindle cohort of 16 community leaders and advance Black/Jewish dialogue in St. Louis.
• $1500 will pay for our next Israel education speaker.
• $1000 will bolster our Rabbi Robert P. Jacobs Jewish Fund for Human Needs and the vital programs that the fund supports throughout St. Louis. 

Thank you all in advance for considering JCRC with your giving dollars. With deepest appreciation for our longtime donors and supporters.




Sincerely,

David L. Cohen

Executive Director,

JCRC of St. Louis
