Midtown's Jewish Kids Groups Internet Campaign Raises $11,800 in 48 Hours

Jewish Kids Groups is Atlanta's independent Hebrew school located in Midtown, and creators of a brand new educational model.


Jewish Kids Groups (JKG), Intown Atlanta’s independent (and ridiculously cool) Hebrew school, launched an online fundraising campaign on Monday, April 15th and by the end of the 48 hours raised an astounding  $11,800! 

“I’m blown away!” said Ana Fuchs, JKG’s Executive Director and founder. “The campaign’s meteoric success is proof that our unique formula for fun and content-rich Jewish supplemental education really resonates with young families.”

Every weekday afternoon, JKG is home to a unique Afterschool Community where Jewish friendships are built, and Judaism is lived and experienced—while still getting homework help, snack, and plenty of outdoor play. On Sundays, JKG holds an alternative Hebrew School.
