Dear Lab/Shul Friend,

Tonight is the longest night of the year – and we are counting on you to help us lift up light on this and all 365 nights and days of the year.

With the clock winding down on 2023, and with war and uncertainty tearing us apart, Lab/Shul is ready for whatever’s ahead, providing safe and brave space for spiritual solace, dialogue and debate, care and support towards repair, healing and peace.

This month, through the end of 2023, all donations will be matched 1:1 thanks to a generous, anonymous donor who has recognized Lab/Shul’s efforts to extend ourselves through new program offerings, communications methods, and galvanizing support for Israelis and Palestinians since October 7th.

Today we want to invite you to be not just our partners and generous co-creators, but also our lovers of hope, expanding circles of empathy. Please watch this brand new video that reminds us of where we were on Yom Kippur, what’s Leonard Cohen and David Broza got to do with this moment, and why we are grateful for your continued trust and support:
