Help Areyvut Launch the We Accept Program!

Hello, Everyone! Thanks for taking a few moments to stop by the campaign page for Areyvut's newest initative, a tolerance course called We Accept. As many of you already know, Areyvut was founded in 2002 to infuse the lives of Jewish youth and teens with the core Jewish values of kindness, charity, and social action.

Our newest program is a course called We Accept. In our community, there are no classes or courses that specifically talk about the importance of tolerance and acceptance. The program will focus around bringing together Jewish youth of all denominations- in our area, Orthodox, Conservative, and Reform Jews rarely mix- and we believe it's important to help these teens build mutual respect and understanding. While Jewish children and teens may learn about how bias and baseless hate led to the Holocaust or other genocides, they do not have the opportunity to discuss acceptance of other people and other cultures in their own day-to-day life. We Accept would provide teens with a multi-week class that specifically looks at issues of discrimination, stereotypes, and bullying.

Areyvut appreciates your support- and no gift is too big or too small. Please join us in bringing this important class to the community. Help Areyvut but clicking the Donate Now button above and support this innovative, new program!

Thank you in advance!
