100 Jewish Men

2024-2025

100 Jewish Men is a group of men dedicated to improving themselves and each other as men, fathers, husbands, brothers, sons, friends, and Jews. Through controversial, thought-provoking speakers and small group discussions, we will explore what usually remains unspoken in men’s lives at work and at home. We have an incredible year planned, and we hope you choose to be part of it.

 Each event is a stand-alone program.  There are no annual fees; you pay per program that you attend.
