Across North America, many Jewish teens and young adults are searching for a stronger sense of community, identity, and belonging.

In recent years, rising antisemitism, social isolation, and growing disconnection from Jewish life have left many young people feeling uncertain about where they belong and how to stay connected to their heritage.

The Or Hadash Fellowship was created to help meet that need.

Our goal is simple: create meaningful opportunities for Jewish young adults to engage with community, deepen their connection to Jewish identity, build leadership skills, and participate in educational and cultural experiences that strengthen long-term Jewish engagement.

Funds raised through this campaign will help support:

Community events and educational programming
Leadership workshops and mentorship opportunities
Shabbat gatherings and holiday experiences
Israel and Jewish heritage learning initiatives
Scholarships for participants with financial need
Mental wellness and peer support programming
Outreach efforts for disconnected Jewish students and young adults
We believe strong Jewish communities are built through connection, learning, shared experiences, and support for one another.

Every contribution — large or small — helps create welcoming spaces where Jewish young adults can grow, connect, and feel proud of who they are.

Thank you for helping us invest in the future of Jewish life and community.
