Jookender Mission and Approach
Jookender supports, strengthens, and sustains Russian speaking Jewish communities in Greater Boston, New England, and the world. We work every day to reconnect non-affiliated Jews and people interested in Judaism to these larger Jewish communities--at their pace, on their time, without membership fees, pressure or proselytizing. Our approach simply introduces and exposes people to Judaism's rich history, rituals, and traditions.
In a welcoming, non-judgmental environment, Jookender offers family-friendly programs and activities that help Russian speaking Jewish individuals and families find their place in the Boston Jewish community and beyond.
A 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, Jookender's programs and activities are led by professionally trained, knowledgeable, and multi-lingual staff who know, teach, and demonstrate Jewish values. Working directly with families, educators, and volunteers, Jookender sparks a love of Israel and Judaism by building family bonds and community bridges.
