Community is something you do, not just something you join.
When you give your time and show up for one another, you find community, make meaningful friendships, and experience the impact Judaism can have on your life. Every age, background, and level of observance has a place here.

Give your time
Many hands, one community
Being a volunteer deepens your connection with the City Shul community – and brings the quiet joy that comes from supporting the people around you.
There are many ways to help, big and small. Find one (or more) that suits you best, and you’ll quickly discover you’re part of something larger than yourself.
