Help Yiddishland Land!

We are one of only three Yiddish non-profit organizations in California and we are entirely volunteer-run. Ever since leaving La Jolla in San Diego in April 2024, we have been searching for our next and permanent location. 🌍 To continue growing, inspiring, and connecting, we must secure a space that matches our vision of Yiddish resilience and sustainability, creativity and community 🏡. From December to April 2025, the Yiddishland mishpokhe is traveling the US and the world to establish and deepen global connections. This isn’t just about relocating—it’s about securing the future of Yiddishland for generations to come.

We are also planning a retreat in Cabo Punta Banda, Mexico from June 13 to 15, 2025. Help us out by filling out this short questionnaire.

Yiddishland California has always been greater than just a place —it’s a dream 🌌 , a community , and a movement to keep the light of Yiddish culture burning brightly for all. ✨💫

✨ Every donation 💜💛 , no matter the size, brings us closer to realizing the dream 💭. Your support fuels every step of this journey—whether it’s finding the right location, empowering global partnerships, or continuing online activities.  🌟 We are also constantly on the lookout for new board members, interns, and volunteers to strengthen our team. Let’s build the Yiddishland of tomorrow!
