Overview

Mission

The National Havurah Coordinating Committee NHCC mission is to maintain a network of diverse individuals and communities dedicated to grassroots Jewish living and learning, community building, and tikkun olam, which is repairing the world.

What it reported doing in 2025

A week long Summer Institute was held during the summer. NHC also supports smaller regional retreats. These programs offer educational courses on a variety of Jewish topics.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 91% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
