The Jewish community from India asks for help of to assist our community to return to our roots.

At present, many of our young people have forgotten the treasured customs and traditions of the Jews of India.

Our task at hand is to record customs and traditions of Jews from India, handed down from one generation to the next, while our elders are still around.

We have accumulated more than 2,000 tapes and files of India Jewish liturgy, which await professional editing and transcription.

We encourage you to donate to a project whose sole purpose is to preserve the amazing legacy of the India Jewish community.
