Partner with me to help at-risk youth in the Bay Area and Israel

Currently, there are over 350,000 at-risk youth in Israel and 1/3 of the Bay Area's youth live in poverty.

As a member of the Marin/San Francisco Jewish Community Teen Foundation, we are hoping to change that. By funding organizations that promote self-sufficiency for at-risk youth in the Bay Area in Israel, we hope to provide tools that promote-self sufficiency. This will allow these youth to drastically improve their lives. I will be donating $100 of my own money to support this cause. Please join me in helping to make a diffence.

My name is Rachel Barlow and I am sixteen years old. This year I was fortunate enough to be selected as a member of MSFJCTF's Leadership Council. This oppertunity has allowed me to continue working to improve the lives of others for a second year. We are a board of 22 dedicated high school teens who find a cause we are passionate about, create a mission statement, then fundraise to support organizations whose missions' match ours. Last year, our board raised over $51,000! We are hoping to surpass this amount this year and your donation of any amount can help. Thank you so much.
