NECHAMA - Jewish Response to Disaster

NECHAMA – Jewish Response to Disaster is a national, volunteer-driven 501(c)(3) organization rooted in the Jewish value of tikkun olam (repairing the world). The organization leads and trains volunteer teams to provide direct relief, recovery, and preparedness services to communities affected by hurricanes, floods, tornadoes, and other natural disasters while serving people regardless of faith.

The EIN 41-1998750 is confirmed by publicly available IRS/990 filings and nonprofit databases and matches NECHAMA’s disclosed tax filings and public disclosure copies. In recent years NECHAMA has maintained sustained field operations — notably a long-term deployment in Western North Carolina following Hurricane Helene (late 2024 onward) — engaging hundreds of volunteers and transitioning from muck-and-gut debris removal to interior rebuild work.

NECHAMA has shown organizational growth and transparency in filings (Form 990s) and public reporting; its most recent public financial summary shows increased revenue in the 2024 filing year and the organization is listed and profiled by major charity evaluators. NECHAMA has also received multi-source grant support to sustain capacity and deployments.
