Why It Matters
Being openly Jewish as a business owner isn’t always easy Sometimes you’re afraid to show who you are, to use your name, your language, your identity but we shouldn’t have to hide It’s hard to be a small business even harder to be an Israeli business And sometimes, the hardest part is simply being Jewish. We’ve heard countless stories of businesses being boycotted, silenced, or simply ignored not because of their quality but because of their identity.
That’s why JewConnect was created: to give us visibility, pride, and power we are here to support each other to amplify our voices to remind each other that we are not alone This platform was born from lived experience and built with love It is sustained by community, for community If you’re here, reading this then you are already part of the story and we’re so glad you’re with us
