The Adventure Rabbi Program is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization. Our programming is sustained in large part by contributions.

The Adventure Rabbi program has been including in Slingshot, a resource guide for Jewish philanthropists, recommending the top 50 Jewish organization to support financially. Slingshot is produced by 21/64, a division of the Andrea and Charles Bronfman Philanthropies. This publication provides a "resource list of some of the most innovative organizations, projects and leaders, across the country." We are proud that our program was included in the list of "the more exciting new expressions of Jewish life in America."

Many thanks to following donors who have contributed to the Adventure Rabbi organization with a tax-deductible donation. It is only with your financial contributions, large and small, that we are able to afford a full-time rabbi, event and trip insurance, support staff, web-development, newsletters, and other expenses. Thank you!
