With support from Federation’s Annual/UJA Campaign, JDC’s Entwine is helping young adults, ages 24 to 36, make a meaningful impact on global Jewish needs and international humanitarian issues by participating in overseas travel with service opportunities. Missions range from one week to one year and span the globe. For more information about Entwine, visit jdcentwine.org.
