Take Action

Donate.

Your donation enables the continued operation of MJA, including programming for local Jews of color, paid advocacy and education work within our community and financial assistance for our membership.

We are a growing organization in the startup phase, and are currently seeking our 501c3 status. Your donation will help us engage our community, create our identity, find other Jews of color, and compensate our partners and vendors for their time and skills.

Donations are tax-deductible through our fiscal sponsor JCA.
