Inspire Yourself to Inspire Others...

Project Inspire is a grassroots movement whose goal is to unify the Jewish People. Project Inspire encourages Jews to share the beauty and wisdom of Yiddishkeit with their fellow Jews by providing easy and inspiring ways to reach out as well as the tools and understanding on how to reach out.

Whether friends, family, neighbors, or co-workers- we all know people with whom we can share the sweetness of Jewish living.

We provide the following options to help you get involved:

1. Easy Outreach: Campaigns revolving around Yomim Tovim where we provide holiday gifts with user-friendly explanations helping you touch the lives of those you know.

2. Kiruv Training Seminars: Aim to give an understanding of the "how-to's" of kiruv, as well as how to answer many of the philosophical questions people commonly have. The multi-part series have been attended by thousands of people in the New York tri-state area.

3. Coaching: Includes eGroups where members of the groups email into each other with their outreach experiences. It provides Chizzuk for the members of the group as we as constant coaching by the group's eCoach. For those not in an eGroup, our "kiruv coaches" will be available to answer your questions and provide the guidance needed to effectively reach out.

4. Leadership: Help enable other people in the community to reach out and inspire other Jews or bring Project Inspire to your community by being a point person for your shul or hosting a group event.

Our united efforts, with Hashem's help, will be the seeds to infuse light, love and inspiration to all of Am Yisrael.
