Current Volunteer Opportunities

LEAD SERVICES OR READ TORAH

As we head into the new year, the Gabbai Committee would like to know if you are interested in leading services, reading Torah or participating in our minyan in any other way. Whether you are new to DC Minyan, visiting for the summer, or have been attending for a while, please contact the Gabbai team at gabbai@dcminyan.org.

KIDDUSH VOLUNTEERS

The DC Minyan Kiddush committee is looking to expand our volunteer base of people interested in helping set up, clean up, or shop for Shabbat morning kiddush. If you love cutting pineapple, arranging lox, stacking oreos, or quality time in the JCC kitchen, this is the opportunity for you! If you are interested in occasionally helping out with kiddush, please complete this form so the Kiddush team can contact you!

KIDDUSH COMMITTEE

The Kiddush Committee is looking for new members to facilitate setup and cleanup in the kitchen. If you would love to delegate the arrangement of vegetable platters, this is the job for you. Kiddush Committee responsibilities include coordinating with weekly volunteers to ensure setup and cleanup run smoothly. Please email kiddush@dcminyan.org for more information.

LIFE CYCLE RESOURCE GUIDE

DC Minyan offers a number of helpful guides for planning life cycle events on our website. These guides help community members plan for various milestones and important parts of Jewish life, such as weddings, births, and death & mourning, including help finding local Kosher caterers, mikvahs (ritual baths), and spaces for rent. We are looking for a volunteer to help us update these guides. If you have recently planned a milestone event in the DC area, or just have a few minutes to spare to check websites and proofread, this is a great way to help out fellow community members. Please email mitzvah@dcminyan.org if you are interested.

SHORT TERM VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES

We have heard from many members that you would like to hear about opportunities to help DC Minyan with short-term, discrete projects. Volunteering is a fantastic way to get more involved in DC Minyan, and we would be delighted to help you identify the right volunteer opportunity for you based on your interests and availability! If you would like to find out about specific volunteer opportunities in addition to those listed above, please email the Steering Committee at sc@dcminyan.org. We look forward to hearing from you!
