Project Heart - Restitution for Victims of the Holocaust

Project HEART is a nonprofit initiative of the Jewish Agency for Israel (JAFI), funded by and in cooperation with the Government of Israel. Its primary focus at this stage is identifying individuals who may have potential claims regarding property. To be eligible, the claimed property must meet ALL of the following criteria:

• The property was located in countries that were controlled by the Nazi forces or Axis powers at any time during the Holocaust era.
• The property belonged to Jewish persons as defined by Nazi or Axis racial laws.
• The property was confiscated, looted, or forcibly sold by the Nazi forces or Axis powers during the Holocaust era.
• No restitution was received for that property after the Holocaust era.
