Description:

The New Jewish Home's mission is to empower older adults to enhance purpose and well-being through a portfolio of innovative health care services. Our vision is a new reality in which ageism is no longer, and society embraces its older adult members. Inspired by the diverse people we serve, we’re innovating new approaches to caring for older adults that are true to our values and build upon a foundation of making everyone feel at home.

We look forward to welcoming you to our team as a Volunteer at The New Jewish Home, Manhattan. We have provided health care services to older adult New Yorkers since 1848. By joining our team you become part of our long-standing tradition and will become a critical part of our organization and its many services.

Opportunities for volunteering can be tailored to your individual skill set. Some examples could be playing music for residents, playing chess with a resident looking for a partner, helping run holiday events, leading Bingo, and so much more!

Who we are

We are a team of change-makers who believe that every helping hand can raise a child and create a better future for them.

We started extending help to needy children and youth who were eager to study and work for a better life. This moment intensified when we found that there were many such underprivileged children who needed help with food, shelter and education. Our team expanded and we spread out in different regions to make sure we cover all possible areas and help as many children as possible.

We now run shelter homes, schools and a reasonable mess that helps such needy young people. We also have our helpline offices spread throughout the country so one can approach us anytime they need help.

Our approach

Our Mission

Our mission is to make sure all young people and children get all the support they need, when they need it, no matter what it is.

Whether it is a reassuring conversation, financial help, education, professional training, or simply the assurance that they are not alone, we will make sure that everyone gets support that meets them where they’re at as quickly as possible.

Our Vision

We want to build a world where no child or youth feels alone and gets every possible help they need as soon as possible.

Our entire team wants to see a world where every youngster struggling in any way feels able to reach out and has people who’ll help them with education, jobs, and more. We want to spread out in every region so we’ll be reachable to all.
