The one gift your grandchildren will carry for the rest of their lives.
Grandparents have always been the keepers of tradition, the ones who make sure the important things get passed down. Giving the gift of Jewish learning is one of the most meaningful ways to do that. A grandchild who knows the blessings, who feels at home in a synagogue, who can stand up on their Bar or Bat Mitzvah day and mean every word, does not get there by accident. It takes someone who cares enough to make it happen. That can be you, and it can start with a single phone call.
Or simply call: 561-368-1199
The Gift of Jewish Learning Outlasts Everything Else
Many of our students are enrolled with the loving support of grandparents. Some live three states away from their grandchildren. Some spend winters here in South Florida and summers up north. All of them wanted the same thing: for the chain to continue, with warmth and joy, in a way that works for their children’s busy, modern families.
Because Neshamah is a dues-free, open-access community, your gift funds only the learning itself. No membership. No building fund. Just your grandchild, wonderful teachers, and the tradition you love.

The Gift of Jewish Learning Includes You
This is not a check you write and a program that happens somewhere else. Grandparents are woven in from the start. You’ll receive progress notes as your grandchild advances. You’re invited to our family Shabbat and holiday gatherings, online or in Boca Raton, where three generations often share one screen and one set of candles. And if you’re here in South Florida, come meet Rabbi Amy in person, join us for Shabbat, and when your grandchildren visit, bring them along. Your Jewish home is their Jewish home.

Dear Rabbi Rader,
The warmth, charm and beauty you brought to the service for Jared’s Bar Mitzvah meant a great deal to me and my family and our guests. Your presence and light accompaniment as Jared was chanting was an experience both thrilling and poignant to me.
May you and your complete staff continue your work with the very fortunate community that you lead.With much gratitude,Brenda HambyGrandmother of JaredBar Mitzvah June 2026
