Welcome!"Kavana" is the Hebrew word for intention and speaks to our desire to empower individuals to create a meaningful, personal and fun Jewish experience for themselves and their families. As a cooperative, we build an open and intimate Jewish community by drawing on the strengths and interests of each participant.
We invite you to join us in this new and exciting endeavor. Sign up now to stay apprised of what's up with Kavana! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Exciting News...Rabbi Rachel Nussbaum is #16 in Newsweek's Top 25 Pulpit Rabbis (even though we don't have a pulpit with Kavana) - read more...

Family Education with KavanaThe education team continues to make big plans for the fall. In the meantime, be sure to join us on May 10th for our next Kavana's Shabbat Family Education program series. May 18th will be our next of our Kavana Prep and Practice event - focusing on Passover. Learn more about the whole Kavana Prep & Practice series. IMPORTANT! Help Kavana Match the NATAN Innovation GrantContinuing our great news - Kavana has just received a very prestigious national award recognizing our start-up nature, our early success, and our innovative approach. The award is a $25,000 matching grant from the Natan Fund, a Jewish venture philanthropy group based in New York City. Specifically, this prestigious national grant is given to those organizations who are small, innovative and, ideally, doing things that are replicable and changing the face of Jewish life today. As a matching grant, they are providing a 1:1 match for all incremental or new contributions at or above $500. Our goal is to raise all of the funds before the end of our fiscal year (June 30, 2008) - with at least half raised by March. Click here to make your contribution or learn how!
