Maot Chitim: How Chicago’s Jewish Nonprofits Are Changing to Accommodate COVID-19
Despite financial and logistical hardships, Jewish nonprofit organizations in Chicago do not intend to stop their critical work of supporting Jewish life. With covid wreaking havoc on everyone’s lives, the nature of nonprofit operations is changing at record speed. Organizations found new and creative ways to adapt. At Maot Chitim we didn’t have any hands-on volunteer activities this year. We were forced to cancel the annual seder for BBYO in the Illinois Holocaust Museum. We also gave food to The Ark, the Chesed Fund, and the Holocaust Community Services.
