NCSY is an organization with a mission unlike any other. Charged with the critical work of encouraging passionate Judaism through Torah and tradition, NCSY has been saving the lives of Jewish teens for over half a century. As the only lifeline t0 Judaism for thousands of Jewish teens, NCSY relies on the generosity and commitment of partners like you to raise the desperately needed funds used to inspire and empower the Jewish future.
There is always another teen to bring back, another neshama to kindle, another link in the chain to strengthen. At a time when our teens are bombarded by numerous influences, a time when many Jews barely acknowledge their Jewish heritage and identity, NCSY hopes to partner with you to strengthen our ties and tradition. In this way, we can maintain what we have sustained for centuries and what is so precarious today – Am Yisrael.
Save the life of a Jewish teen by generously pledging directly to the NCSY Scholarship Fund. Your donation can send a teen to Israel for the year, provide her with her first Shabbos experience, or buy him his first set of tefillin. Last year, over $500,000 in scholarships were provided to unaffiliated Jewish teens.
