Ever wonder how the Jewish Link got its start? Join us on this episode as we speak with its publisher, Moshe Kinderlehrer. Moshe is the publisher and co-founder of the Jewish Link of New Jersey – Expanded Edition, and the Jewish Link Media Group. After nearly two decades in the nonprofit and fundraising field, he launched his first paper in 2013, the bi-weekly Jewish Link of Bergen County. With G-d's help, it was an immediate success and from this first paper, which soon became a weekly and was renamed the Jewish Link of New Jersey in 2014, he expanded his media and print efforts by founding the Jewish Link of the Bronx, Westchester and CT in 2015. He has helped launch papers in Rockland County (Monsey Mevaser), the Philadelphia area (Philly Jewish Link), and the DC/Maryland area (Kol HaBirah). He is also affiliated with the Queens Jewish Link and Bukharian Jewish Link, and is working on other media and print-related businesses as well. Prior to entering the Jewish media world, Moshe enjoyed an extensive career in the nonprofit and fundraising arena with his last job serving as a Director of Institutional Advancement at Yeshiva University with responsibility for the Azrieli Graduate School of Education, the Bernard Revel Graduate School of Jewish Studies, and the YU High Schools. Before YU, he served in senior fundraising roles at American Friends of Leket Israel, Friends of Jerusalem College of Technology, OHEL, Gesher, as an independent nonprofit consultant, and as a consultant for NYC-based nonprofit consulting firm Perry Davis Associates. Moshe is an ordained Orthodox rabbi and served as the assistant rabbi at the Fifth Avenue Synagogue from 1998-2000 We discuss all things Jewish Link; why it got started, why Moshe believed in it, and how it has grown over time.
