Repair the World’s National Days of Jewish Service (NDJS) kicks off Sept. 10 – Oct. 10 with opportunities designed to engage 10,000 individuals in meaningful volunteer service. During the Fall NDJS, Jewish individuals and organizations, alongside their neighbors in communities across the world, will engage in service events centered on the Jewish High Holidays, 9/11 National Day of Service, and commemoration of the October 7th attacks.
“Volunteering connects Jews, especially young adults, with Jewish life, building purpose, community, and belonging,” said Melissa Levine, senior director of field activation, Repair the World. “The NDJS brings thousands of people together across differences to live their Jewish values while tackling issues like food insecurity, homelessness, and educational inequity. As we enter the High Holiday season, we’re channeling themes of renewal into meaningful action and showing up in service to create a brighter future.”
Jewish organizations can apply for microgrants for the remainder of the year to host impactful service experiences that strengthen communities meeting pressing needs. In addition, individuals can receive volunteer stipends as Michael Kay Jewish Service Ambassadors to lead their peers in meaningful action.
Following the Fall NDJS, the initiative continues with MLK Day(s) of Service (January 15-19, 2026) focusing on “Justice, Equality, and Civil Rights,” and concludes with Spring NDJS opportunities (April 1-30, 2026) themed “Rooted in Tradition and Branching into Action,” incorporating Passover themes, Holocaust remembrance, and environmental stewardship. Across all three NDJS activations, Repair will engage 10,000 volunteers across the Jewish service movement, uniting the global Jewish community through shared values of service, solidarity, achdoot, and mutual strengthening, hitchazkut.
