We believe each member of the Jewish community deserves the opportunity to discover who he or she is as a Jew in the world today. That is why we have embarked on this journey:
"We are honored to be among the builders of the future of the Jewish people by investing in Pardes's new home. An enhanced facility will allow this wonderful organization to open its doors to many more students who wish to immerse themselves in Jewish learning in a warm, open and inclusive atmosphere."
Stephen and Marsha Donshik, Efrat Israel"To walk through the doors of Pardes is to enter a world that is challenging, meaningful, and transformative. In its new building, Pardes will be able to open its doors to countless more Jews and more communities, in a space that honors the significance of the task at hand. It is a privilege to play a part in this momentous effort to bring serious, meaningful Torah learning to every Jew who seeks it. It is an investment in a better Jewish future for our children and grandchildren."
