The town of Bendery was founded in 1408 as a fortress Tigina (Osman Empire). Then in 1812, Bendery as part of Bessarabia joined Russia. In 1918-1940 the town found itself on the territory of Romania. In the period between 1944 and 1989 it belonged to the USSR. Beginning with 1990, Bendery is in Pridnestrovye/ Transdniestria. It is 64 kms from Kishinev. Its total population is 130,000 people.

The first references to the Jewish history in Bender are dated by the early 18th century when a synagogue was built on the fortress territory. By 1930, there were 8,000 Jews in the town, while at the end of 1980s, the Jewish population counted 6,000 people. Nowadays the Jewish population of the town and two peripheral settlements is 905 people.

The Council of Jewish Organizations unites the main local Jewish organizations including Hesed, JCC, JAFI representation, etc. It coordinates joint city events organized by Jewish organizations. In 2004, the “Halom” Jewish Community Cultural Welfare Center was founded. Being the successor of Hesed and JCC, "Halom" is a new community structure that unites welfare, cultural and educational programs.
