Jewish Poverty & the Impact of Covid-19: Access to Higher Education (August 4, 2020)
Channel: Jewish Funders Network
Date: 05/08/2020

In this webinar, we discuss the many challenges low-income Jewish college students face as they juggle work, family responsibilities, financial insecurity and now Covid. Learn how the community can help build opportunities and networks for underserved students to support retention and success. 

Note: We apologize for the occasional choppiness in this video; the webinar was conducted via Zoom, and poor weather weakened the Internet connection of one of the participants.
