Jewish Agency for Israel

Since 1929, the Jewish Agency for Israel has been partnering with world Jewry to strengthen the people and State of Israel. This global Jewish partnership has enabled Jewish Agency programs, which are focused on three primary realms of activity: facilitating the aliyah and integration of Jews in their ancestral homeland, connecting the next generation of Jews to Israel and their heritage through Israel-based educational initiatives, and shaping an Israeli society of opportunity and development by confronting the challenges in Israel’s social and geographic periphery.

American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee (JDC)

Founded in 1914 on behalf of North America’s Jewish communities, JDC is a non-political humanitarian aid organization that gives global expression to the principle that all Jews are responsible for one another. Working today in over 70 countries, JDC rescues Jews in danger, provides relief to those in distress, supports the renewal of self-sustaining Jewish community life, and helps Israel overcome the social challenges of its most vulnerable citizens.
