When we picked the name “Jewish Link” for our paper and media company, we did so because we were serious about connecting our unique Northern New Jersey Jewish communities.

Our kehillot are tied together in so many wonderful ways, be it through family connections, schools, shuls, federations and non-profits.

We continue to strengthen that connecting link. With that in mind, we are pleased to announce our expansion to Middlesex County, which includes East Brunswick, Highland Park and Edison. This comes as we are now formalizing our coverage of and serving the Passaic and Clifton Jewish communities.

Typically, it is the Jewish Link’s custom of making important announcements either on or around an anniversary. It was in the month of March on our first anniversary that the Link became a weekly. On our second anniversary, we became the Jewish Link of New Jersey, expanding from the Jewish Link of Bergen County.

Our growth on the cusp of our third anniversary represents not only the expansion of the Link, but also a mirror of our unique Jewish community; though diverse, we are still united on so many levels.

We thank all of our communities for your support as loyal readers and advertisers. We hear from you on a regular basis, and we understand that you depend on us to uphold the high bar of Jewish values and ethics in our coverage. We hold sacred your trust, and we pledge to always be the place where you can find news of your local Jewish communities, Northern New Jersey, Israel and the world. You can count on us to keep growing. Every step forward we take, we do it in partnership with you—our ever-growing extended Jewish Link family.

We thank you for that growth.

Have a wonderful Shabbos!
