We’re having a raffle!

This June, we will be raffling off some great merch (see below!) and a spot in any one UnYeshiva class in the coming year (see our FAQ for details) as we fundraise for the end of our fiscal year. Everyone who has donated in the 12 months prior to June 30 will be entered to win! Plus, a generous anonymous donor is matching every single new or increased donation so your gift to help us build the next Jewish future will be doubled.

 
 

If everyone who listens or follows our work gave, we would be a very healthy non-profit organization and could create lots more content. We are excited to experiment with new ways of funding Jewish work. Thanks for helping!

Thank you in advance for your generous support of our work!

FAQ

I already donated at least $7 in the last year, do I need to do anything?

Nope! You are already entered! If you have donated less than $7 total in the last year, simply donate again to surpass that number and you will be entered.

Please note: UnYeshiva tuition payments are not donations, so if you have paid for a class, but not donated outside of that context, you will not be entered.

What if I donate more? What constitutes one entry?

Regardless of how much you donate, any one donor who gives above the minimum will be entered in the raffle one time.

When will the winners be announced?

We will announce the winners and email them on July 6, 2022.

Which UnYeshiva class can I attend for free?

Any ONE class that starts before July 2023 is eligible. These classes haven’t been announced yet, but there will be a couple of semesters of classes to choose from in the coming year. Check out our past classes for a taste of what kinds of courses we offer.

Can I get two short classes if I don’t want to do a long one?

The winner will get free access to any ONE class. We know that for some, a 12-week commitment isn’t possible and a single three-week short class is a better fit. We also know that the topics that interest folks vary widely and with our approach to class pricing the “value” of this prize is not strictly monetary, but about the opportunity to choose any one class that most interests the winner and works for their life.

What do I need to do to have my gift matched by your anonymous donor?

Gift matching applies to every new or increased donation from June 1-30, 2022 up to $10,000 total. If you give any amount extra in this time period, it will be doubled! We deeply appreciate all increased donations and we need donations to continue our work, so thank you in advance for choosing to increase your gift or give for the first time this year!
