A letter from our Chair
The Canadian Friends of the World Union for Progressive Judaism enables Canadians to support the world-wide progressive Jewish movement. The work of the Union extends to almost 50 countries and touches over 2 million Jews worldwide. I thank all of our donors and encourage your continued generosity.
You will find more about progressive Jews worldwide on our website and on the Union’s website at wupj.org.
