As 2021 comes to a close, I am asking you to recommit to the fight against genocide and mass atrocities by donating to Jewish World Watch – an organization I co-founded with the visionary Rabbi Harold M. Schulweis (z”l) nearly 18 years ago.
Over the last year, so many survivors of genocide and atrocity have endured tremendous pain and hardships. In addition to the violence and displacement brought about by evil and corrupt leaders, this year also brought extraordinary additional challenges in the form of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and increased resource scarcity due to climate change and global spikes in violence which required a diminishing supply of available assistance to be distributed to an increasing number of refugees and displaced people.
Through Jewish World Watch, your contribution will help provide a brighter future for Rohingya children, renew dignity for rape survivors in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and increase food security for Darfuri survivors in Chad.
Those served by Jewish World Watch have faced unspeakable brutality and strife, yet, with so much happening in the world today, they are often forgotten. JWW and our supporters do not forget them and continue, each year, to do what we initially set out to do 18 years ago: to Not Stand Idly By.
