HELPING ISRAEL
TOGETHER

Our People is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping Russian-speaking Jews with aliyah - practical absorption in Israel and connection to Jewish Identity.
At the same time, we are building and supporting an entire ecosystem of Russian-speaking organizations and communities, offering both tactical support and Jewish identity programs that facilitate successful absorption.
