D O N A T E ! E N D O W ! Around the world, news agencies are finding it increasingly difficult to fund their operations. As a result, the quality of news, especially written news, is suffering. If you do not want to see this happen to news about Israel, from Israel, we need your help.
If you have a passion for the news, especially news about Israel and from Israeli perspectives, help us. Donate a monthly amount, endow us for the present and coming crucial years. CLICK HERE
Our primary financial need is to pay those who write for us. Many do so at no charge. Even so, every laborer deserves to be paid. Inasmuch as we pay our reporters, we facilitate their lives in Israel, encourage them and insure more and better stories in the future.
There is also a need to go on location where stories are happening stories. Because we are already in the Middle East, we do not have to go far. Still, there is a cost in sending reporters to places “on the ground” where stories are happening. Partner with us in this work through your monthly donation.
The Jerusalem Journal is a USA 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. As such donations may have tax benefits. Please, check with an accounting professional to see if a gift has a beneficial impact on your income taxes.
