Do you believe in Makom and our vision of a grassroots, downtown Jewish community fusing Jewish tradition and progressive values through spirituality, learning and art?

Do you value a diverse, inclusive community that leaves labels aside and comes together to explore how Judaism can meaningfully enrich our lives?

Do you participate in Makom’s Shabbat or holiday services, adult ed classes, Makom Afterschool, Makom ATID, Makom Families programs, meditation or cultural events?

Then Makom is already your Jewish community and you should be counted as a member!

Makom membership is about seeing yourself as part of our growing and thriving community, giving to it and receiving from it.

Makom does not have set membership dues. Instead, we ask you to make a commitment to your community in three crucial ways; the amount of each is up to you:

  • Participation – Community exists only if you’re a part of it!
  • Donation – We need your support to run creative, inspiring programs, cover rent and staff costs, etc.
  • Volunteering – You have something valuable to give, whether web design, event planning, setting up chairs or any number of other ways you can really help out.

Our goal is to sign up 200 committed members and raise $72,000 for 2018-2019.

We therefore suggest a tax-deductible contribution of $360 per adult and $36 per child/teen. (Donations may be given upfront or spread over 12 months.) However, feel free to give more or less, depending on what’s a meaningful and affordable amount for you. Any amount that you’re able to contribute will be appreciated and will affirm your membership.

So if you believe in, value, and participate in Makom, please fill out your membership form on this site and make your contribution now.

What Makom gives you:

  • Uplifting and inspiring services, Makom Afterschool, adult ed classes, Makom Families programs, meditation, culture and more
  • Access to Rabbi Aaron for religious guidance, counseling and lifecycle events
  • Annual spiritual checkup with Rabbi Aaron
  • Discounted High Holiday tickets, Shabbat dinners, and other programs for each membership donation of $180 or more for an adult, $36 or more for a child/teen. (We'll email you a discount code.)
  • A voice in Makom’s decision making via voting for and potentially serving on Makom’s board and important working groups
  • Deep satisfaction that you’re contributing to building your downtown Jewish community

By becoming a member, you’ll help Makom become more sustainable and ensure that we can continue to offer the services and programs that make us your unique community.

Please fill out the membership form on this site and make your contribution today.

Thank you for your commitment to our community,

Rabbi Aaron and Makom’s Board:

    Louise Smith, President
