Our Story

How This
Began

This initiative grew out of a sign-on letter authored by Wexner Heritage alumna Debbie Findling and supported by additional alumni, current cohort members, and others in the Jewish community.

It reflects a shared sense of moral urgency and a commitment to move from words to action. Jewish leadership calls on us not to stand idly by in the face of harm, but to actively participate in repair whether or not we caused the harm.

Leadership

Who We Are

This effort is led by two Wexner Heritage alumni from the San Francisco Bay Area.

Debbie Findling

Wexner Heritage Alumna

Debbie authored the original sign-on letter that sparked this initiative, drawing on her deep commitment to Jewish communal responsibility and the imperative to act in the face of injustice.

Jan Reicher

Wexner Heritage Alumna

For Jan, this effort is also deeply personal. As a survivor of rape, this work reflects not only a commitment to Jewish communal responsibility, but also to dignity, healing, and support for other survivors.

The Invitation

Join Us in Making
a Difference

We have established Tikkun Funds at three vetted organizations to support healing and restorative change.

The Wexner Heritage program costs approximately $36,000 per participant. In recognition of that investment in each of us, we hope you'll consider donating a percentage — or even the full amount — to the Tikkun Funds or to an organization of your choice.

If you are a Wexner Heritage alumni and have not signed the letter, we invite you to join us now by clicking here.

Make Your Gift
$36,000
pledged by each founder

We have both pledged $36,000, to be shared among the three organizations. This is a significant stretch gift for us, but we feel a moral obligation to reflect the Jewish values of responsibility we learned through the program.

While capacity differs for everyone, we hope you'll join us in making a gift that is meaningful to you.

Where Your Gift Goes

Support These Organizations

Three vetted organizations on the frontlines of survivor support, prevention, and advocacy.

Advocacy & Policy

World Without Exploitation

WorldWE supports Epstein survivors through advocacy, legislative action, and public awareness campaigns. The organization helped lead the movement that resulted in passage of the Epstein Files Transparency Act in late 2025 and has worked directly with survivors to press the Department of Justice to release all unclassified records related to Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell in pursuit of full public accountability.

The coalition also supports Virginia's Law, named for Virginia Giuffre (z"l), introduced in Congress in early 2026 to eliminate statutes of limitations for adult survivors of sex trafficking to bring civil claims. WorldWE was co-founded in 2016 by Lauren Hersh and Rachel Foster, two Jewish leaders recently named to TIME's list of the world's most influential people.

Israel & Global

Association of Rape Crisis Centers in Israel

ARCCI is the national umbrella organization for Israel's nine rape crisis centers, providing a 24/7 hotline, counseling, legal accompaniment, and long-term support to survivors across diverse communities. They play a leading role in shaping national policy, advancing legislation, conducting research, and driving public education.

In the aftermath of October 7, ARCCI has assumed a significant international role, documenting and raising global awareness about conflict-related sexual violence, training professionals, and advocating for recognition and accountability worldwide.

Why This Matters

"We must not stand idly by
in the face of injustice."

— Jewish ethical principle, Leviticus 19:16

Jewish tradition teaches that we must not stand idly by in the face of injustice, even when we did not cause the harm. Repair requires actively addressing harm, not merely acknowledging it. This Jewish ethical principle extends to our shared communal responsibility to ensure survivors know the Jewish community stands with them.

Regardless of your personal stance on the allegations against Wexner, and whether you signed the letter or not, we invite you to stand in solidarity with survivors of sexual trafficking and violence. This is about taking responsibility, supporting survivors, and aligning our actions with our values.

"I hope for a world in which predators are punished, not protected; victims are treated with compassion, not shamed; and powerful people face the same consequences as anyone else."

— Virginia Giuffre (survivor)
