Unity in a Time of Crisis

(JNS) Arthur Stark, William Daroff and Malcolm Hoenlein - A crisis engulfed our community over the past month.

By sharing what we have, by responding to all who need our help, we are recognizing our obligation to do acts of lovingkindness that will bring relief from the current crisis. The members of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations may differ when it comes to political leanings or religious affiliations, but we approach this challenging time more united by common purpose.
