Mission
The American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee (JDC) is the world’s leading Jewish humanitarian assistance organization
Secular. Religious. Just Jewish. Cultural. Intellectual. Sephardic. Ashkenazi. Mizrahi. We're all #JewishJustLikeYou. At JDC, we believe the power and the beauty of global Jewish life come directly from our diversity. There are more ways to be Jewish than there are Jews in the world - so, tell us what it's all about for you.
Where your support goes
JDC works in more than 70 countries and in Israel to alleviate hunger and hardship, rescue Jews in danger, create lasting connections to Jewish life, and provide immediate relief and long-term development support for victims of natural and man-made disasters.
The results
With nearly a century’s experience helping Jewish communities confront crises and battle extreme poverty, JDC’s disaster response and community development programs provide a lifeline for some of the world’s most vulnerable people.
