Kiddush & Third Meal Sponsorships
Kiddush on Shabbat & Yom Tov
To sponsor, please email [email protected] and let us know the date & occasion for your kiddush, and the menu option you've selected.
Kiddush is a highlight of the Mekor community. Sponsoring kiddush is a wonderful way to contribute to the community to honor or remember friends and family, as well as to commemorate life cycle events. We welcome multiple sponsorships or shared sponsorships on any given Shabbat or Yom Tov. We will include an announcement in our Shabbat newsletter, as well as in shul announcements on that Shabbat or Yom Tov. If you have any questions about the kiddush menu options, contact the shul at [email protected].
