Rachel Sumekh - Dispelling Myths and Addressing Jewish Poverty
Monday, September 30, 2024
Episode 56 of What Gives? the Jewish philanthropy podcast from Jewish Funders Network, hosted by JFN President and CEO Andrés Spokoiny.
In this episode, Andrés speaks with Rachel Sumekh, Project Executive of TEN: Together Ending Need, a collaborative initiative of funders working to ensure that all Jews have access
to basic needs. Rachel and Andrés speak about the critical issue of Jewish poverty. Rachel highlights the reality of Jewish poverty, dispels the myths surrounding it, and sheds light on how poverty impacts all sectors of the Jewish community.
Rachel brings both data and heart to this important conversation, as we explore ways the Jewish philanthropic community can tackle these challenges.
