Statement of Purpose

To arouse the appreciation for and understanding of our religion among the young men of Jewish faith in this country, and to translate this appreciation and this understanding into action, by being loyal to the best traditions of our faith and alive to the needs of the modern day. This means humility before God; self-respect before man; readiness to eternally serve the weak, the downtrodden, the sick, regardless of race, creed or color; regard for our fellowman, respect for his feelings and beliefs, and finally willingness to battle against wrong and for the right, to battle fearlessly, fairly and effectively.

 …These are our aims and objects of our organization. We must study how best we can serve these ends. We must act as a supplementing force with our leaders and our rabbis to bring back to the Synagogue those of our brothers who have for a time forgotten their religion, and to strengthen others, as well as ourselves, to be inspired by and to carry on the eternal truths of Judaism.
