What makes a UJC mission the experience of a lifetime?

It’s the fascinating places … and especially the people. The ones you travel with and the ones you meet.

When you travel on a UJC mission, you’re guaranteed to get up close and personal – to meet people where they live – to experience distant lands in a way that will be both memorable and meaningful. And of course you will see, eat, shop, learn, and enjoy – all with a uniquely Jewish perspective.

At United Jewish Communities (UJC), we are engaged in the work of tikkun olam, or repairing the world, mindful of the Jewish tradition that each person is an entire world. We strive to make a difference in a person’s life, a family’s potential, a community’s spirit. On a UJC mission, you’ll encounter individuals and entire communities who benefit from our services, our programs, and the compassion of our donors who make it all possible. Some of the people we’ve touched around the world have been changed forever, and after you hear their stories, your life too may be changed forever.

You will see the wonderful panorama of Jewish faces from the four corners of the earth – Russia, Ethiopia, Yemen, Morocco, India, Europe, Argentina, North America, Turkey, and more. This amazing diversity brings challenges, but also wonderful opportunities. Whichever mission you choose, you’ll witness firsthand the extraordinary work of our overseas partners, the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee (JDC) and The Jewish Agency for Israel.

A UJC mission is different things to different people. It can be about values, traditions, and history. Or it can be about fun, friendship, and renewed family bonds. Or any combination you choose.

We invite you to join us for a mission that fits your lifestyle, age, and interest. Explore, enjoy, and return with memories that will last a lifetime.
