Mitzvah Week

There is a word in our tradition: mitzvah. It is more than a good deed. It is a responsibility to care for one another, strengthen our community, and take action when it matters most.

This Mitzvah Week, your gift does more than support a single program. It helps sustain the Chicago Jewish Alliance and the work we do every day to protect, advocate for, and strengthen Jewish life across Chicagoland.

As a grassroots organization, CJA responds when our community needs us most. Whether we are confronting antisemitism, advocating before school boards and elected officials, supporting Jewish students and families, or bringing people together through education and community programs, your generosity makes that work possible.

Your gift helps us:

• Mobilize rapid, on-the-ground advocacy when our community needs it most
• Defend Jewish students and families facing antisemitism
• Advocate before school boards, elected officials, and public institutions
• Educate, connect, and strengthen the Jewish community
• Support Jewish organizations, businesses, and community initiatives
• Respond quickly to emerging challenges affecting our community

A stronger Jewish community is built through action. Every donation helps ensure the Chicago Jewish Alliance can continue standing up for our community today and for years to come. Thank you for making a difference this Mitzvah Week.

Chicago Jewish Alliance is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. All donations are tax-deductible to the fullest extent permitted by law.
