“Judaism offers a vision of living wisely in the world with an open mind and a kind heart.” – Rabbi Dr. Raphael Zarum
“Throughout the centuries…Jews maintained an educational infrastructure as their highest priority. It is no exaggeration to say that this lay at the heart of the Jewish ability to survive catastrophe, negotiate change and flourish in difficult circumstances.” — Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks z”l
Jewish education, formal and informal, is a dynamic journey steeped in tradition, fostering a deep connection to heritage, values and community. Through study, exploration, experience and dialogue, it cultivates a profound understanding of Jewish identity, history, and culture, empowering individuals to engage meaningfully with their Judaism and the Jewish people.
Rooted in centuries-old traditions of study and scholarship, formal Jewish education typically includes the study of sacred texts such as the Torah, Talmud, and other rabbinic literature, as well as instruction in Hebrew language and Jewish rituals and observances. Whether in synagogue-based religious schools, day schools, or yeshivas, formal Jewish education aims to impart knowledge to future generations through rigorous study and guided explorations. Informal Jewish education offers a dynamic and engaging approach to learning outside of the classroom. It often takes place in informal settings such as youth groups, summer camps, community centers, and experiential learning programs. Informal Jewish education emphasizes experiential learning, discussion, and hands-on activities. Through interactive experiences like group discussions, arts and crafts, outdoor activities, and cultural events, informal Jewish education aims to make learning enjoyable, relevant, and meaningful for participants of all ages.
Central to both formal and informal Jewish education are our texts, the sacred writings of our people. Fortunately, there has been a tremendous amount of work done over the past several years digitizing and otherwise making Jewish texts accessible online.

“[p]erceiving the Jewish diaspora as one unified whole is evaluating its critical scope in its entirety. The language of wholeness implies neither uniformity nor univocity, but rather internal dynamics of changing centers and peripheries throughout long histories and vast geographies.” — Re’ee Hagay and Jonathan Boyarin
All over the world, communal organizations play a vital role in Jewish life and have fascinating stories to tell. They sustain the vibrancy and welfare of local communities worldwide by focusing on philanthropy, social services, advocacy, and addressing a wide range of other needs beyond religious or educational realms. They support crucial initiatives such as social welfare programs, humanitarian aid, community development, security assurance and disaster relief efforts. Additionally, they play a pivotal role in promoting Jewish continuity by fostering connections among diverse segments of the community and strengthening ties with Israel. They also preserve and transmit Jewish traditions, values, and heritage from one generation to the next, ensuring the ongoing vitality and resilience of the Jewish community. By mobilizing resources and coordinating communal efforts, these organizations embody the principle of “kol Yisrael aravim zeh bazeh” (all Jews are responsible for one another), strengthening the bonds of solidarity and mutual support that characterize Jewish life while simultaneously and seamlessly connecting their constituents to the broader communities in which they reside.

The Jewish religion traces its origins back over 3000 years. Rooted in the covenant between the Almighty and the Israelites, Judaism is characterized by a complex tapestry of beliefs, traditions, and practices. Central to Jewish theology is the belief in one transcendent Almighty, adherence to the ethical principles outlined in the Torah (the central religious text), and a deep sense of communal identity and responsibility. From the observance of Shabbat (the Sabbath) to the celebration of holidays like Passover and Yom Kippur, Judaism encompasses a diverse array of rituals and customs that have evolved over millennia while remaining deeply rooted in ancient tradition.
Here are our partners focused on helping you explore Judaism in all of its magnificence:
“Thou shalt not be a victim. Thou shalt not be a perpetrator but, above all, thou shalt not be a bystander.” — Yehuda Bauer
One of the basic tenets of Jewish life is “tikkun okam,” repairing and improving the world. Every single day, members of the Jewish family are serving others, aiding the less fortunate and pursuing social justice for everyone in impressive and important ways. The Jewish philanthropic community contributes billions of dollars to a wide range of Jewish organizations every year, and many Jewish people are also significant donors to secular causes. And, long before the challenges of climate change became apparent, the Jewish people believed in protecting nature and preserving it for future generations.
As the great sage Hillel said, “If we are only for ourselves, who are we?”
