This year I gave out $4000!
One of my favorite parts of my job as a rabbi is writing checks from my discretionary fund so that kids can afford to go to summer camp. If you'd like to donate to help cover those scholarships, please do so here: www.sinaireno.org/donate

Hard same. Over my dead body.
Amen to that. So basic.
This International Women's Day, please remember that trans women are women. Full stop. No qualifiers.
I think I'm feeling a bit better. I suddenly want a burger.
