Dear Friends,<\/p>\n

As 2020 comes to a close we are reflecting on Kulanu\u2019s accomplishments this year, supporting Jewish communities around the globe.<\/p>\n

The coronavirus pandemic changed many of our plans this year, but we were able to pivot to more online programming to connect with more people than ever.<\/p>\n

From virtual Jewish learning classes to our Online Speaker Series, Kulanu leveraged technology to continue to support and raise awareness of our partner communities.<\/p>\n

With more than 7,000 views, our 14 Online Speaker Series sessions<\/a> <\/strong>connected\u00a0people across five continents in real-time to share different Jewish perspectives.<\/p>\n

Our Kulanu in Song Chanukah Benefit<\/a> <\/strong>shared Jewish music and dance from 11 countries on five continents that Kulanu supports.<\/p>\n

“As we all joined online together, I could feel the sense of community in real-time across continents. For me, the Chanukah Benefit went even further in helping me appreciate how far we have come,” shared Kulanu’s president, Harriet Bograd.<\/p>\n

Kulanu also collaborated with major organizations across the Jewish spectrum to help gain recognition for our partner communities. Our photo of brides from Madagascar is featured as a highlight of the museum’s new permanent exhibition at Beit Hatfutsot: Museum of the Jewish People in Tel Aviv<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The photo by Barbara Vinick from 2016 shows four of the twelve brides who had Jewish weddings after they formally converted to Judaism with a team of Orthodox rabbis arranged by Kulanu. They are holding \"\"ketubot and challah covers from Ghana<\/a> given to them as gifts from Kulanu.<\/p>\n

Kulanu needs your help to continue its support of our many international partner communities.<\/p>\n

Please donate online now<\/a> <\/strong>or send a check to Kulanu, c\/o Harriet Bograd (address below) to secure Kulanu\u2019s future! If you have already given, thank you!<\/p>\n

Consider making a multi-year donation or a regular monthly gift that will allow us to efficiently plan for the future.<\/p>\n

We look forward to seeing you online in 2021. Thank you for being part of “all of us”!<\/p>\n

Warm regards,
\nHarriet<\/em>
\nand “all of us” at Kulanu<\/p>\n
