Young adults are more stressed out, addicted to technology, and lonelier than ever. Luckily, there’s an ancient tradition that can solve all of that.
We at OneTable believe that Shabbat dinner fulfills a deep need for human connection by creating a space to slow down and share a beautiful meal with others, ending the week with intention and purpose.
But many aspects of participating in Shabbat can trigger anxiety in millennials who are newer and less comfortable sharing intimate, in-home experiences. They may:
- Need help connecting with like-minded peers;
- Be intimidated by unfamiliar rituals;
- Or need financial assistance to help cover the expense of hosting a meal.
At OneTable, we knock down these barriers – making Shabbat so simple that it feels intuitive – and helping young people create meaningful and enduring Shabbat dinner practices.
As Shabbat becomes accessible and a source of joy, we envision a generation of young Jews equipped to create their own Jewish practice and build meaningful community.
OneTable is growing fast, which means we are already outpacing our projections for 2018. Even having anticipated ambitious growth, we can’t satisfy demand. It’s the right problem to have, but we still need a solution. That’s where you and the Everything But The Table Kit come in.
