JIMENA: Jews Indigenous to the Middle East and North Africa

At JIMENA, we are committed to educating and engaging a diversity of individuals and institutions on the legacies of Jews from the Middle East and North Africa while confronting the rising antisemitism we see today. From advocating for the recognition of Jewish refugees at the United Nations, to supporting students, educators, and activists, we’re ensuring that the history and contributions of Sephardic and Mizrahi Jews are not forgotten or erased.

This year, JIMENA will publish critical research on Sephardic and Mizrahi Jewish Americans, expand our educational resources, and continue amplifying the stories and voices of our communities across diverse, multi-lingual platforms.

But we cannot do this alone. Your generosity fuels our work to educate, advocate, and empower. Please join us by making your year-end contribution to JIMENA today.
