About Passover

Passover commemorates the deliverance of the Jewish people from slavery in Egypt and the birth of an independent and free people. It is also known as Chag HaMatzot (the feast of unleavened bread) in remembrance of the time when the children of Israel left Egypt so hurriedly there was no time for the dough to rise.

2forSEDER

2 for Seder helps you push back on anti-Semitism because you are sharing an authentic Jewish experience together.

We believe that each individual is the key to building bridges and fighting anti-Semitism throughout the year.

Building Interfaith Bridges in 2022

You are not powerless in the face of hatred.

As you start to plan your Passover Seder – April 15^th and 16^th – consider inviting 2 friends to their first Seder so they can experience the celebration, discussion, and tasty food at the Seder table. Not only will they be part of a Jewish festival that has been celebrated since at least the 5th century BCE, it will help build strong interfaith bridges that can stand up to hate and antisemitism.

Invite two friends to their FIRST Seder and build strong interfaith bridges that can stand up to hate and antisemitism.
