HIAS

There have never been more people seeking safety and so few places willing to protect and welcome them. More than 100 million people are fleeing persecution. Governments should be taking responsibility to support them, but instead, their responses are unacceptable. Founded more than 120 years ago, HIAS is there for refugees when and where they need help most. We are a Jewish humanitarian organization that works in the United States and 20+ other countries, providing vital services to refugees and asylum seekers of all faiths so they can rebuild their lives. With the Jewish community beside us, we also advocate for the rights of forcibly displaced people globally. Over our expansive history, we've confronted—and overcome—formidable challenges facing refugees. Today, we are a leader with the expertise, partnerships, and values necessary to respond to the global crisis. Refugees deserve a world in which they find welcome, safety, and opportunity. With you, we can create it. Learn more and take action at HIAS.org.
