1. The young and the restless How do we nurture the next generation of Jewish philanthropists Aya I. Shechter Interim National Executive Director Dor Chadash USA.

2. The facts: - Jewish adults at the ages of 18-39 represent 36% of America’s adult Jews. - young Jewish adults in the United States are somewhat less likely to be strongly Jewishly identified than older American Jews. 1.

Ukeles, Ph.D., President Ron Miller, Ph.D., Research Director Pearl Beck, Ph.D., Senior Research Associate of Ukeles Associates, Inc. April 2006 2. American Jewish public activity- identity, demography and the institutional challenge. By Sherry Israel. - the support of Jewish causes, in the form of memberships, participation and contribution, is declining among young Jews ages 18-49.
