We believe that this intervention can best take place via community action and togetherness.
Or Adam builds our community via social action groups, actively taking part in social action activities to better our community. We strive to improve the world and connect to the greater community at large through philanthropy, zedakah [charity], and community service projects. We believe that people are responsible for solving human problems, so we practice Tikkun Olam, the Jewish philosophy meaning “Repair of the world.”
