Reports to: Sara Goldberg, Development Manager

My (Sara) first interaction with JFREJ was attending the first national Jews of Color Convening hosted by JFREJ in 2016 which introduced me to a community I didn't even know I deeply needed. I interned at JFREJ before joining the staff full time in 2018 as a Development Associate. Now as the Development Manager, I'm looking forward to working with someone who's curious about development/fundraising work, grassroots fundraising, and ready to bring more people into our vibrant and powerful JFREJ community.
