"Bunch of lefty Jewish fakers who try to make like they represent “the Jews”. These phonies don’t represent me. I never heard of them"

How many of these phonies do you think there are out there? They are the biggest annoyance. How could they not know that big governments don't like the competition of religious organizations? They are so illogical it gives me a headache. I'm so sick of trying to explain, I'm ready to bang my head to get rid of the pain.

This organization is not religious. This is leftist Jews. Maybe a few reform rabbis I suppose. But this is a social justice organization composed of Jews who advocate for social justice (leftist terminology)

Jewish Funds for Justice (JFSJ) is a national public foundation guided by Jewish history and tradition. We believe Jews have a responsibility to stand with all communities to live secure, fulfilling lives. We believe our most compelling texts, and our proudest moments, are those that reflect our community’s mandate to perfect the world.

For a quarter of a century, we have worked across race and faith lines to ensure that economic opportunity and security are broadly shared across the United States. We create economic opportunity to live up to our values and provoke the United States to live out its values. We do this by investing in low-income communities and grassroots organizations, and by engaging Jews as partners, allies, and leaders in social change work. Our strategic approaches are rooted in Jewish values. They include grantmaking and community investing, leadership development and service learning, organizing and advocacy.

We are recognized each year as one of the nation’s 50 most effective Jewish nonprofits. Slingshot’s resource guide for Jewish innovation describes Jewish Funds for Justice as the “premier, progressive Jewish organization in the country.”

We are proud to be a part of the Jewish community’s long tradition of justice work.
