| Our Mission |
| Our goal is to help the
extraordinarily unique congregation of
Ugandan Jewish women and men. We are working together to create a sustainable community, economically, ecologically, educationally, etc.
We have begun working in collaboration with the neighborhing Christian and Muslim villages as well, sharing our gains to create a unified community that
can support all her members. Our focus is to help the Ugandan Jews attain recognition in the Orthodox Jewish
world, as is their wish (through
conversion if necessary) and aid them in their yearning to join the
Jewish People and the rich history of Judaism.
While this long term goal is
sought, we seek to raise money to help ensure their ability to survive,
continue a Jewish education, and gain economic independence in Uganda
while maintaining their Jewish beliefs. |
| How
You Can Help |
|
You don't need to give us money to
help. Indeed many of the people we contact do not have money to spare. There are others ways to help. Perhaps you know
someone who would want to purchase Ugandan Kippot, or a CD of the music from Putti (purchase here!). You may know places
we could speak to raise awareness, or have contacts in non profits, schools, or government who could aid our vision.
You can start by joining our mailing list. Be sure to include your name, location, and the email address you prefer we use. Also, please check out our new Yahoo! Group or our new Facebook Group. We already have chapters in Chicago, Massachusetts, NYC, Washington D.C., Israel, South Africa, and our newest chapter in Ottawa Canada!
We would love for members to help create new committees supporting the Jews of Uganda in
other cities. Please keep in
touch. B'ahavat Yisrael, |

| Our Goods |

At the moment, we're offering Ugandan Kippot. All
procedes go to
support the Abayudaya Jewish communities. They are quite beautiful,
hand-made Jewish art. Our new CD of authentic African Jewish folk music titled Music From Putti: When I Wake Up IS NOW AVAILABLE! A sample of the Abayudaya singing Adon Olam is available for your listening pleasure. |
