What’s a Get Together?

When you host a Get Together, you’ll invite a few families you know to your home, a hiking trail, or anywhere else for a Jewishly inspired good time. Choose the kind of gathering that works best for you, whether that’s a grownups-only Shabbat evening affair, a bring-the-kids holiday picnic in the park, a volunteering project with PJ Our Way tweens, or one of many other creative options.

Hard to Handle? No Way!

Hosting a Get Together is easier than you may think, especially because we will help. 

• We'll suggest ideas for the kind of Jewish gathering it could be. (We think about this stuff every day! It’s our job, and our pleasure.)

• We'll offer practical tips to make it hugely fun and successful without a huge amount of work.

• We'll even reimburse you for up to $100 of expenses to feed, entertain, and delight your gathered guests. You can even host more than once — we’ll reimburse your family for up to three Get Together events!

Ready to Do This? Here’s How It Works:

It's easy! Click the boxes below to get inspiration from our suggested Get Together ideas. Note that there’s even a box to choose your own event if you have a different idea that brings at least three other families together for a fun Jewish gathering.
