Our Work

We Build Caring Jewish Communities

As Jews, we believe in our sacred responsibility to care for one another. We extend a helping hand to those in need, both within our local communities and across the globe.

שִׁמְעוֹן הַצַּדִּיק הָיָה אוֹמֵר, עַל שְׁלשָׁה דְבָרִים הָעוֹלָם עוֹמֵד, עַל הַתּוֹרָה וְעַל הָעֲבוֹדָה וְעַל גְּמִילוּת חֲסָדִים:

Shimon the Righteous would say, "The world stands on three things: on Torah, on service, and on acts of loving kindness."

Social Services

Caring for one another is at the core of what we do. We work tirelessly to feed the hungry, comfort the sick, assist the elderly, shelter the homeless, and support those in need—both locally and globally. We are unwavering advocates for the vulnerable and champions of social justice.

Support those in need in your community

Rather than sitting in your room alone, you become part of a community. You become part of a family. We're not alone anymore.
