PARTNERS

We are grateful for our partnership with the Simchat Torah Challenge. On Shavuot we celebrate the gift of receiving the Torah, but we can find joy in reading the Torah all year long. Join the Simchat Torah Challenge, a community of over 15,000 Jews reading one Torah portion each week. Whether you’re new to the Torah or a seasoned scholar, you’ll connect to the wisdom, values, and stories that have guided us for generations.

We are pleased to present a track with our cosponsor, the World Zionist Organization (WZO), titled “Israel-Diaspora Relations + Jewish Peoplehood: From Crisis to Healing.” Our organizations share a deep connection to Israel. We weave our relationship with Israel into our diverse Jewish identities and collectively explore its sights, sounds, history, and complexity. We are grateful to the WZO for their generosity and creativity in the creation of five excellent Tikkun sessions.

Breakfast at Tikkun Leil Shavuot has been generously donated by Zaro’s Family Bakery, a New York institution since 1927. Zaro’s Family Bakery is an iconic family-owned, New York City-founded bakery with 14 locations throughout New York City and New Jersey. The first Zaro’s bakery was opened in the Bronx in 1927 by Joseph Zaro, a Jewish immigrant from Poland. Today the fourth generation of the Zaro family runs the business and serves over 3 million customers a year.
