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.

This year we at COJECO are exploring the need and interest of the Russian-speaking Jewish community for a customized, culturally sensitive, pluralistic family program for parents and their children leading up to Bar/Bat Mitzvah.

We envision a year-long program that would offer Russian-speaking Jewish families an immersive, multifaceted experience so children and parents can learn about the history, significance, traditions, and rituals of becoming Bar/Bat Mitzvah through a culturally sensitive lens and with a like-minded community.
