Shana tova, happy new year, a zis gebentsht yor!

As we enter the yomim-neroyim (Days of Awe), we wish you a zis gebentsht yor – a sweet and blessed year ahead. May the joys of di khale mit honik (challah dipped in honey), der honik-lekekh (honey cake), and the blowing of the shofar fill your heart with sholem - peace ️and happiness this roshashone.

We also want to wish you a g’mar chatimah tovah – a gutn kvitl!

During this special time, we are filled with gratitude for the generosity that has helped our nonprofit organization, YAAANA, thrive. Your support has allowed us to preserve and celebrate our cherished Yiddish culture. As we continue our worldwide search for land for Yiddishland, your contribution, no matter the size, can help make Yiddish dreams a reality. We are also constantly on the lookout for interns and volunteers to strengthen our team.

Please stay in touch and we hope to see you at our Fall events and classes!
