WE BELIEVE IN THE DEEP CONNECTION BETWEEN PEOPLE & PLANET, ADAM AND ADAMAH

Every day, we inspire and empower Jewish youth, teens, families, leaders, and institutions through immersive experiences which interweave Jewish tradition and sustainability, build inclusive community, and cultivate hope for a better future.

Our work is about connecting people – to each other, to the earth, and to a sense of spirituality and awe.

Our programs are made possible through the generous support of federations, foundations, and individual donors like you who invest your time, energy, and financial resources.

Shorashim Legacy Gifts

If you have a sapling in your hand and someone tells you the Messiah has arrived, first plant the sapling and then go out to welcome the Messiah.

Rabbi Yochanan ben Zakkai
Shorashim means “roots” in Hebrew.

Our roots are the promises we keep to our children, our earth, and each other. Your bequest to Adamah keeps your promise to make the world a better place.

Your legacy gift to Adamah is a living gift that continues to grow…in the rich farm soil of the Adamah Fellowship… for the youth who discover a new perspective through the immersive outdoor education experience of Teva… while building community during transformative holiday celebrations at our Retreat Centers… and for participants of all our programs which strengthen Jewish identity and inspire commitment to tikkun olam  – healing the world.

Together we will build a more environmentally sustainable world for all. Your gift to our Shorashim Society is an enduring one, growing stronger for generations to come. Thank you!

Thank you for your support! Please email donate@adamah.org with any questions or for more information.
