Rich Jew, Poor Jew
Did you know that 29% of American Jews struggle to make ends meet?
What you are about to hear is a session from the 2025 Jewish Federation of North America General Assembly, the JFNA GA, entitled Redefining Jewish Life Through the Lens of Economic Reality.
In this session, we examined 2025 data on Jewish poverty in America, and discussed how our communal narratives about money and class obscure the real experiences of Jews across the economic spectrum. The first speaker you’ll hear is Rachel Sumekh, Entrepreneur and CEO of Together Ending Need. You’ll also hear from Jon Hornstein, Program Director at The Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Foundation, and our own Rabbi Shira. To see some of the data referenced in this episode, go to togetherendingneed.org/ga
