This year’s Campaign is making a particular effort to reach out to members of Montreal’s Jewish community who have not previously donated because participation is what ensures the community’s continued vitality. The goal is to reach out to 1,000 new donors in 2010.

Why we must be for one another

For one another means that I feel the pain and the anguish of a fellow Jew, that their tears run down my cheeks. It means that their dreams and hopes are mine, as well. The concept of “for one another” means that none of us will ever be alone.
