Thank you to the entire REALITY community for hosting and guesting at so many incredible Shabbat dinners with OneTable through the years! You can always continue hosting and bringing your community together with OneTable on any Friday night!
As you’re likely aware, beginning July 1, 2024, Schusterman’s REALITY program, which has brought more than 3,000 influential leaders to Israel over the past 15 years, will continue under itrek.
We’re working on potential new grant opportunities for the OneTable and REALITY community to host elevated dinners in the future. Email Claudia to be added to the notification list and check back on this webpage for updated info as it becomes available.
Note: This information reflects the original REALITY x OneTable program through May 31, 2024. We’ll keep you posted as other potential grant opportunities become available.
Thanks to funding from the Schusterman Family Philanthropies, OneTable is able to offer additional support and grant opportunities for REALITY trip alums hosting Shabbat dinners for the REALITY community.
REALITY x OneTable Shabbat dinners can receive Nourishment of up to $50 per guest for up to 75 people ($3,750 max), based on event need. Dinners must be open to the REALITY community and include at least 10% REALITY guests in order to be eligible for a REALITY x OneTable grant. If you’re hosting a Shabbat dinner for another community, you’re welcome to receive Nourishment via the OneTable platform.
Dinner grant applications should be submitted at least two weeks in advance of the dinner so that we can get you fully set up with everything you need to have a seamless experience with our resources and Nourishment. Dinners must be posted by the Tuesday before your dinner. Contact Claudia Halpern if your Shabbat is coming up sooner, and we’ll do our best to support you and your dinner.
OneTable’s support is geared towards hosts and guests in the United States and Toronto. If you’re a REALITY alum and live somewhere else, please email Claudia, and we’ll do our best to make an exception and help support your REALITY x OneTable Shabbat dinner.
