We are a growing network of Jewish organizations and influential leaders from around the world, united in our commitment to strengthening the ties that connect the Jewish people. Founded in the summer of 2023, our mission took on even greater urgency and significance after October 7th. In this pivotal moment, it has never been more important for world Jewry to come together in new ways to support one another, forge deeper relationships, and embrace the shared values that link us.
We are working to secure the Jewish future by making connections, building relationships, and amplifying the work of our partners. These three pillars — connection, collaboration, and amplification — are essential to breaking down silos and enriching the Jewish organizational ecosystem. By bringing organizations together, we are creating the foundation for new and innovative ways to enhance the resilience and solidarity of the global Jewish community.
Our approach is not to create new content and programming but to broaden the reach of our partners. Across the Jewish world, organizations are already doing extraordinary work. We aim to ensure that their contributions reach the widest possible audience, maximizing their impact and strengthening Jewish life everywhere.
We are extremely fortunate to have assembled a large and distinguished advisory board to help guide our efforts. This diverse and passionate group is deeply committed to klal Yisrael, the solidarity and well-being of the Jewish people. Their experience, expertise, and unwavering support are invaluable, and their leadership underscores the power of community and the necessity of meaningful connections.
Now, more than ever, we must stand together to build a vibrant, resilient, and connected Jewish future.
Please join us in this critical effort.

“In the hours and days following October 7, 2023, people from around the world began asking the same question: What can we do to help? Donations started pouring in; small ones, large ones, each carrying with it a sense of urgency, compassion, and helplessness. The desire to act was overwhelming. That question, and those first simple gestures, became the foundation for Smiles for the Kids.”
From delivering meals to families to supporting small businesses affected by the war, Founder Aron Schoenfeld details the inspirational impact that Smiles for the Kids has had on communities in Israel. Read more in this week’s GJ Connections at globaljewry.org/the-other-war/. ... See MoreSee Less
