SPRING 2025 MINI-SERIES & CLASSES
Olam Hesed Yibaneh
Building a Better World
January 14 and 21
This mini-series invites our students consider what kind of world they want to live in - and how our character can shape those visions (empathy, compassion and beyond). Through the lens of Jewish texts and the timeless wisdom of our sages, they’ll engage in meaningful conversations, hands-on creativity, and opportunities for personal growth as they work to build a better, kinder world together. Our two week program will also give us a chance to learn the wisdom from Dr. MLK Jr. and help us not only dream of a better world, but build it together.
What a way to start 2025!
