This Giving Tuesday request is different

December 3, 2024

It’s Giving Tuesday, and we know you’re inundated with emails asking you to support worthy causes. But there are two reasons this request is different.

First, there is no other national Jewish organization exclusively focused on engaging Jewish voters in support of policies and Democrats who represent our values. The Jewish Democratic Council of America (JDCA) is the organization leading the Jewish opposition to Trump in 2025 and beyond, and every dollar you donate will support this important work. It will also help us lay the groundwork for Democratic wins next year and in the midterm elections.

And second, a generous donor is matching the first $25,000 in Giving Tuesday donations to JDCA. That means your first gift to JDCA today will have double the impact on our work to advocate for our values and impact elections. Every dollar you give will be scaled to have an even larger impact, so we hope you’ll join us as a member of JDCA today.

This is the best time to make your first gift to JDCA. Donate today, and every dollar will be maximized to protect our values, stand up to Trump, and lay the groundwork for Dems to win the next election.

DONATE NOW TO DOUBLE YOUR IMPACT

JDCA was made for this moment. Created in 2017 after neo-Nazis marched in Charlottesville, we’re now the political home and voice of Jewish Democrats. We’ve grown exponentially in the past six years, helping Democrats win and advocating for our values to Congress and the White House. In 2024, 75% of our endorsed candidates won their elections, thanks in large part to our 2.8 million direct voter contacts.

We’re going to continue having an impact, opposing the Trump agenda, advocating for the values of Jewish voters, and laying the groundwork for future Democratic wins. This work starts today, and it starts with you becoming a supporter of JDCA.

Your first gift to JDCA – doubled when you give today – will be used to stop Trump and MAGA every step of the way, including crucial efforts:

  • Advocating for the Senate to reject Trump’s antisemitic, extreme, unqualified, and dangerous Cabinet appointments.
  • Laying the groundwork to elect Democrats who share our values in special elections, in Virginia and New Jersey in 2025, and in the midterms in 2026.
  • Growing and cultivating the community of Jewish Americans who show up in support of Democrats when it matters most.

Donald Trump keeps crowing about his “mandate” of power. Friends, in reality, Trump had one of the slimmest popular vote margins of victory for any president in American history. And come January, the Republican House “majority” will be the narrowest in 100 years, with just two seats more than Democrats. JDCA knows how to fight Trump when he is in power, and we will do it again in 2025 with your help.

Give generously to JDCA on Giving Tuesday. Your first gift will be matched only if made before midnight tonight.

Thank you. We’ll keep you updated on the progress toward this important fundraising goal, and we deeply appreciate your partnership and support.

In solidarity,

Halie Soifer
CEO, Jewish Democratic Council of America

P.S. If we reach our $25,000 Giving Tuesday matching gift goal, we will have $50,000 we can use to resist Donald Trump. Make your first gift to the Jewish Democratic Council of America today and double your impact.
