The March event has been cancelled due to the Corona Virus outbreak. Please join us in May.
Families join together for a year of learning and doing with facilitator Elisha Getcher. Parents will explore Jewish themes (environment, chesed, human rights, hunger) alongside their children and engage in a deeper conversation while children participate in a hands-on activity.
Elisha Gechter is the Senior Program Manager of the Wexner Israel Programs at Harvard Kennedy School. A former associate director of community engagement for adult learning at Hebrew College, she graduated from the Heller Hornstein master’s program at Brandeis University. She is the recipient of the Nachshon Leadership Award from Mayyim Hayyim, and now serves on heir board, and was named a 2015 Chai in the Hub honoree by Combined Jewish Philanthropies. She lives in Somerville with her husband and two kids where they attend local minyanim and enjoy taking in the food and music scenes.
