Our RA Masorti Campaign 5785 | The Rabbinical Assembly

We are reaching out to you in this time of mourning and tragedy in Israel. 5784 has been a complex, difficult and challenging year for Jewish communities throughout the world. We hope and pray that 5785 will be a better one for our people.

Our colleagues in the Masorti Movement in Israel and Masorti Olami have been under extreme pressure to meet the challenges of the day for their communities. We are all cognizant of the fact that they have truly made a difference in the communities that they serve. In Israel post October 7th our colleagues have ministered to those who are in need of comfort as well as physical, emotional, and spiritual healing. They are on the front lines for those whose families have been torn apart by this terrible war.

While all of our colleagues have needed to stand strong against the scourge of antisemitism which has reared its ugly head, those who serve outside of North America have had unique challenges. It is the task and the privilege of all of us in Our RA to care for one another and the communities that are being served by our colleagues during these challenging days.

We are honored to lead the 5785 RA campaign in support of our colleagues as we show the communities they serve in the State of Israel and the Diaspora (outside Canada and the United States) that we are with them in their struggles. The funds raised in this campaign will be divided between the two organizations so that our values of tolerance, egalitarianism, and kavod habriyot, all in a halakhic framework which defines our Movement, can be displayed throughout the world.

We ask for your support and generous response to this campaign. We received an anonymous matching opportunity for money donated to the Masorti Foundation for new donors and previous donors who are increasing their gift. These donations will be matched by 50% up to a total of $10,000 in matching funds. As we have learned from our sage Hillel in Pirkei Avot 1:14 our first task is to take care of our own Masorti family and the time is now.

Learn more about the impact of your donation here.

While you will be contacted by a colleague in our RA for your donation to the campaign, please don’t wait until you hear from them. Please respond generously to our request for your support.
