These are the programs that enable tens of thousands of students a year can pursue meaningful careers.

Years ago, an ORT education focused on trades and vocational education. Today, an ORT education is synonymous with high quality science and technology instruction, the most advanced teacher training, and the ability to connect students and teachers through the Internet, interactive websites and e-learning centers. ORT also combats economic hardship and promotes Jewish identity with its network of critically needed social services and state-of-the-art educational institutions.

Your donations enable ORT America change lives around the world, one student at a time.

Your generosity enables ORT America to provide thousands of new immigrants with the language and employment skills needed to adapt to their newly-adopted country, enter the job market and build productive lives.

Your commitment to ORT America addresses student’s individual needs with tutoring, enrichment and intervention programs that overcome learning challenges, stimulate growth and allow students to achieve their potential.

You contributions make the future brighter and provide the gift of learning and the opportunity for a better life - for students of all ages.

These are the individuals that ORT touches everyday by providing high quality education and training. Imagine that:

  • you live surrounded by anti-Semitism and the school is your safe haven, a place where you are free to be Jewish without fear.
  • the school you attend is your family’s first connection to Judaism in generations.
  • your parents are unemployed and you don’t have money for textbooks, a school lunch or even bus fare
  • your school is fortified and under daily threat of rocket attacks.
  • with a family to support, you've lost your job and need retraining to obtain a job in your town or city.
  • you are a new immigrant and are having trouble with the language in your adopted country.

Please help us continue our work by joining the ORT family or donating today.
