"The Israel-Hamas War: Impact on Jewish Americans and Interfaith Communities"

Jewish Americans, deeply affected by the recent Israel-Hamas war, are reconsidering their family size and actively seeking to have more Jewish babies as a way to rebuild and honor the lives lost. Many women who thought they were done having children now feel a strong desire to bring more Jewish children into the world. This decision is driven by a sense of Jewish identity, a desire to replace lost lives, and a commitment to instilling core Jewish values in the next generation. Matchmakers are also witnessing an urgency among Jewish singles, both men and women, to find partners and have children to support the Jewish community.
