JGSI brought me back to Judaism. It has sparked my involvement in different Jewish organizations and has inspired me to start volunteering to organizations that help fight against antisemitism. It also helped me stay grounded during the pandemic.
“After participating in JGSI, I feel more connected to Judaism then I have in my entire life.”
“I have never felt any sort of obligation to carry on the chain, but now thanks to JGSI I'm starting to understand exactly what being Jewish means to me (as an inextricable part of my identity).
