Repair the World Fellow

The Repair the World Fellowship is a two-year (August 15, 2022 and concludes July 5, 2024), full time, immersive service and Jewish learning opportunity for young adults passionate about mobilizing local Jewish communities to volunteer. Based in one of eight communities throughout the United States (Atlanta, Baltimore, Boston, Detroit, Los Angeles, Miami, New York, and Pittsburgh), fellows spend two years volunteering with local partner organizations, learning the ins and outs of working at a non-profit, developing their event planning skills, getting to know a community, building a nuanced racial justice lens, and getting to know themselves as they work to build a more just world through service. Fellows will engage the Jewish community in meaningful service learning, Jewish ritual and text, and community programming, mobilizing their peers to serve alongside them at local organizations. The Repair the World Fellowship is for courageous, innovative, and compassionate leaders who want to spend two years launching their professional careers at the intersection of volunteerism, social justice, and Jewish engagement.

The Repair the World Fellowship is open to anyone aged 21-26 (as of August 2022), who is authorized to work in the United States.

Repair seeks to build a community in which all people, including People of Color, Jews of Color, Jewish or non-Jewish, individuals with disabilities, from working-class backgrounds, and transgender and gender non-conforming folks, find a supportive environment that is focused on their growth as individuals and professionals.

Repair the World is a Jewish organization that works to address the needs of all community members. While applicants do not need to be Jewish to apply, they should be excited about mobilizing the Jewish community to volunteer and exploring the intersections of Judaism, service, and justice (tzedek).
