Welcome to Nechama: Jewish Response to Disaster
NECHAMA ("comfort" in Hebrew), is the Jewish community's disaster response organization. Based in the Twin Cities of Minneapolis/St Paul, since 1993 we have deployed thousands of volunteers to help communities clean-up after floods, tornados, and other natural disasters. Our mission is based on the Jewish value of 'Tikkun Olam' – repairing the world through acts of goodness. Our work also builds a sense of volunteer spirit and good citizenship.Learn more about Nechama...
