SAVING JEWISH LIVES AND TRADITIONS

The East European Jewish Heritage Project

Humanitarian Aid

Over the years the East European Jewish Heritage Project has extended its range of activities to assist Jewish communities and individuals revive their heritage and to become self-sufficient. We prefer to work at the local level where we can make the greatest difference. It is also at that level that individuals and communities can have the biggest impact in shaping their own futures.

By working at the local, grassroots level we find that aid is more effectively, efficiently and economically provided. It allows us to assure you that your aid and assistance goes where you intend it to go.

The East European Jewish Heritage Project provides humanitarian and medical aid to both the Jewish and non-Jewish population. How and to whom aid is given (subject to the United States IRS Young and old receive aid from the EEJHP and its friends regulations) depends on the preference of the donors.* The EEJHP does not practice aid discrimination. We serve all Jewish traditions: Orthodox, Conservative, Reform, Secular and anything in between and beyond. The EEJHP will work with any group or organisation that shares our commitment to direct distribution, openness of transactions and fairness of distribution.

We always want your suggestions for new projects

In every instance we are guided by the advice and needs of the local Jewish communities. They are always our co-initiators, partners and volunteers in all of these activities. We never impose aid. We always ask what is needed and how it is to be distributed.
