Social Action
Awareness



In its serious commitment to Social Action Awareness, NAASE has made some very significant arrangements to partner with Jewish social service agencies and with Conservative congregations and chavurot in Israel.

MAZON: The Jewish Response To Hunger

Known for asking American Jews to contribute 3% of the cost of life-cycle event celebrations, MAZON was established in 1986, conceived as "the Jewish response to hunger", and provides grants to Jewish and to non-sectarian organizations working to ease the suffering of millions of hungry people worldwide. Over the last 14 years, Mazon has provided over $17 million in grants. NAASE is a proud sponsor of the life-saving work of Mazon.

Our "sister" Conservative congregation, Shirat HaYam is a small USCJ-affiliated congregation characterized as a chavura, served by Rabbi Shmuel Shaish, located in Eilat.
