The Jewish Future Promise, originally Jewish Future Pledge, is a charitable campaign modeled after The Giving Pledge, to encourage American Jews to designate at least 50% of their charitable giving to Jewish- or Israel-related causes.
Co-creators Michael Leven and Amy Holtz launched the pledge in May 2020, modeled after The Giving Pledge, to encourage American Jews to designate at least 50% of their charitable giving to Jewish- or Israel-related causes.
[1] According to Leven and Holtz, Americans will donate $68 trillion in wealth over the next generation, 20% of which will be given by Jewish donors.
The pledge's aim is for at least half of that 20%, or more than $600 billion, to go to Jewish causes,[2][3] compared to the estimated 11% of donations that do now.
[8] Notable signers of the pledge include businessman Charles Bronfman, The Home Depot founder Bernie Marcus, philanthropist Julie Platt,[1] advocate Morton Klein,[4] activist Noa Tishby,[2] comedian Modi Rosenfeld, and lawyer Alan Dershowitz.
