Filled with courage, perseverance, and love, the Jews of Rostov are a living testament to the Jewish spirit of survival and revival. Our mission is to provide for their material and spiritual needs. Before WWII, Rostov was a thriving hub of Jewish culture and tradition. But in 1942, the Nazis attempted to extinguish it all in a devastating two-day massacre that killed tens of thousands. Today, 75 years later, the embers of Judaism in Rostov burn brightly as a beacon of resilience and revival. With our flourishing day school, bustling synagogue, life-saving humanitarian initiatives, active youth groups, support for Holocaust survivors, and so much more, the Jewish community of Rostov is roaring back to life. But our work has only just begun.
