Our Story

In 1972, alarming studies revealed that approximately 300,000 impoverished Jews resided in New York City. Today, that number has surged to over 500,000. This crisis led to the establishment of the Metropolitan New York Coordinating Council on Jewish Poverty, supported by the American Jewish Congress and the Federation of Jewish Philanthropies of New York. Met Council has since evolved into the largest Jewish charity in America, dedicated to combating poverty and serving over 325,000 clients annually across New York City and its surrounding areas.
