Our Impact
Repair the World is the Jewish service movement.
Through Jewish service and learning, participants strengthen their connection to Jewish tradition and community, address urgent issues like food insecurity, housing injustice, and education inequity, and bridge divides across differences. Our volunteers also support the ongoing work of our local service and community partners, strengthening our communities alongside our neighbors.
Our Approach to Service
Service connects us: to each other, to our neighbors, and to something bigger than ourselves. It’s how we show up in everyday moments and in times of crisis—offering support, bringing hope, and working toward a just world. We believe that service in support of social change is essential to a flourishing Jewish community and an inspired Jewish life. It’s how we bridge divides and build common ground—one act at a time.

What our Communities are Saying
This year, more than 140,000 young Jews and their communities contributed over 230,000 acts of service and learning alongside hundreds of partnering organizations. Each time a person volunteers or learns with Repair, we call that an act of service and learning.

Program Evaluation
Each year we conduct an in depth impact study that assesses the effectiveness of our programs at achieving the outcomes in our logic model. These outcomes center around Jewish and communal impact, for both participants in Repair’s programming, as well as the communities in which they serve.
Our 2024-25 Annual Report
Young Jews are seeking a proud and purposeful Jewish community, and they’re finding it through Jewish service. Across cities near and far, they are coming together to serve, learn, and build bridges through hands-on Jewish experiences. Repair the World is creating pathways for young Jews to live their values with purpose, pride, and connection.
