JEWISH NOW PLEDGE

Together, we have the power to shape the Jewish Future.

ABOUT THE PLEDGE

The Jewish NOW Pledge (JNP) is a national movement inspiring young Jews of all backgrounds to step up into nonprofit volunteer leadership and board service in the Jewish community. Developed in partnership with the Jewish Future Pledge and inspired by the Gates and Buffet Giving Pledge, this movement is nurturing a culture and community of next-gen volunteer leadership, board service, and philanthropy.

What you get

All signatories receive an exclusive invitation to register on our national board matching portal for access to hundreds of board and lay leadership roles across the country. Our customized software offers tailored opportunities to serve as a lay leader at organizations that meet your interests and capacities. You also will have access to virtual and in-person networking and training opportunities to support your growth as a volunteer leader

 

WHY A JEWISH NOW PLEDGE

The Jewish community is not sufficiently developing, networking, or advancing the next generation of lay leaders. This pledge aims to shift the norms of Jewish philanthropy and inspire a younger generation to step into lay leadership now.

This is not just a pledge, but a movement. All signatories are given no-fee access to Jewish Now Pledge network gatherings, lay leadership trainings, and board matching services.

WHAT IS THE PLEDGE

I HEREBY PLEDGE…

1) to serve on a Jewish nonprofit board, junior board, or committee. I will dedicate my time, talent, and treasure to support Jewish communal organizations through lay leadership today and into the future.

2) to commit to a multi-year financial gift to a nonprofit organization I care about which works to strengthen and serve the Jewish people.
