The United States is, through the work of ORT America, the largest global source of ORT fundraising.
ORT America’s fundraising efforts in support of projects in Israel and the former Soviet Union include programs and events, missions, corporate sponsorship opportunities and the solicitation of major gifts.
It is led by a national board of directors and a professional staff operating out of its national office and regional offices throughout the country.
ORT America was created in 2007 from the merger of Women’s American ORT, which was established in 1927, and American ORT, which was set up in 1922.
