TOUCHING THE
LIVES OF ISRAELIS

Strengthening KBY congregations makes progressive Judaism more accessible to the vast majority of Israelis who yearn for an alternative to the orthodox approach to Judaism.

STRENGTHENING
THE JEWISH STATE

Contributing to KBY makes a positive statement to Israel about the value, validity and authenticity of progressive Judaism by strengthening and empowering the 50+ Reform and Conservative kehillot in Israel.


A beautiful poem:
What is a Congregation?


 

 

With the benefit proceeds, KBY will buy Movie Subscriptions for Sderot kids.  Each annual subscription costs $45.
See Sderot Cinematheque project.


The Pizmon Sderot Benefit CD will be made available to all associated groups raising funds for Sderot, the Masorti Foundation (Conservative), the IMPJ (Reform), KBY congregations, and any of your congregations who would like to help.  Please contact us for information at: info@KBYonline.org
