COJECO is excited to launch a second cohort of Adult B’nai Mitzvah Journey, a program for Russian-speaking Jewish adults in New York! This unique experience encourages and enables the participants to join meaningful Jewish learning, celebrate their Bar/Bat Mitzvah, and bring the joy of Jewish living to their families.
The program empowers RSJ change makers to create their own community-building initiatives, with the support of a network of peers, educational workshops, one-on-one mentorship, and mini-grants for project implementation.
A customized, year-long family program for Russian-speaking Jewish parents and their children leading up to Bar/Bat Mitzvah.
The Virtual Academy of Jewish Heritage offers a series of top-notch Jewish and Israel-related educational sessions in English and Russian. Learn more on how to attend these free virtual lectures and help support the academy!
We invite you to join COJECO and the Russian-speaking Jewish community of New York and New Jersey as we proudly march on NYC’s 5th Avenue in support of Israel. We welcome all RSJ community organizations and individuals to join and march together as one strong community.
Bringing Russian-speaking Jewish young adults on a 9-day educational trips to Germany to explore the past and present of Jewish life in Germany, and to experience modern Germany first hand.
We have launched a successful program for adults, children, teens, and families in Northern New Jersey, in partnership with the Jewish Federation of Northern New Jersey.
Project Kavod matches teens and families with Holocaust survivors who themselves never had the chance to have a Bar/Bat mitzvah. As the teens and their families re-incorporate Jewish history, tradition, and culture back into their lives, the families are matched with Holocaust survivors who went through similar experiences.

During this tumultuous time in Israel, our thoughts and prayers are with the families of the victims of terror, and with all of our brothers and sisters in our homeland. Now, more than ever, is the time to support the IDF Project, led by COJECO BluePrint Fellow, Ross Den, to provide tactical gear for IDF soldiers. Please donate now, in whatever sum is meaningful to you.
