Compassion. Integrity. Spirit.
Welcome to Menschwork.
Supporting Jewish Men Since 1990.
We are an intergenerational community of Jewish men seeking meaning and joy from being on our spiritual path together.
In Yiddish, a mensch means “a good person.” We’ve expanded our definition to describe a man who strives to live with Compassion, Integrity and Spirit. Since 1990, we’ve been supporting Jewish men in being a mensch.
