The Forward’s 125-year legacy means that we’ve reached generations of Jewish mothers. In fact, I often hear from readers whose memories of their mother include her reading the Forward (in Yiddish or later in English) at the kitchen table. From the letters mothers wrote to Bintel for advice about the challenges of parenting, to the workers’ and women’s rights movements, to influential Jewish mothers like Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg or author Betty Friedan — the Forward has covered the full experience of Jewish motherhood through the decades. Now, just in time for Mother’s Day, you can make a gift to honor the Jewish mothers in your life. Simply check the box “dedicate in honor or memory of someone” when making your tribute gift. You can even choose to send a note to the honoree with a special message. |
Your gift not only honors that special Jewish mom in your life, it also powers our comprehensive news coverage of the issues she cares about. What better way to honor Mom, Bubbe, or any other Jewish mother in your life? Make your tribute gift before Sunday. Sincerely, |
Rachel Fishman Feddersen Publisher and CEO (and Jewish mother!) The Forward |
