Good People Fund grantee Kavod v’Nichum, led by executive director Sarit Wishnevski, was published this week in eJewishPhilanthropy with a beautiful and timely essay on where Jewish joy truly lives. Sarit writes that enduring joy is found not only in celebration, but in the quieter practices of communal care, chevra kadisha, bikkur cholim, showing up at shiva, and making sure no one faces life’s hardest moments alone. “There is joy in belonging to a community where care is not only a value we name but a responsibility we share,” she writes here: Looking for Jewish joy in less obvious places.
