At Tikva, our mission is simple – to provide aid and education to the lives of at-risk Jewish children and impoverished families in Odessa, Ukraine. Together, our members have helped rebuild Jewish identity ruined by the persecution and communist rule that has constrained the community for decades. Through our educational programs and rescue aid, we continue to save Jewish orphans, help to rebuild the community, educate the Jewish youth, and create a brighter future full of possibilities and the ability to fulfill their dreams.
