No one should have to choose between

safe ritual observance and Jewish belonging.

We believe that all Jews deserve to be fully welcome in Jewish life.

At A Mitzvah to Eat, we empower Jews needing ritual accommodations to safely connect to sacred Jewish practice and community. We provide resources, support, and advocacy for these Jews, as well as the Jewish community and its leaders.

Together, we are creating a Jewish culture of dignity, meaning, and belonging.

You Are Not Alone

"A Mitzvah to Eat has helped me enormously in feeling that I have a place in the Jewish community even though my disabilities and neurodiversity have made it hard to live a life of Torah and mitzvot as I would like. I also think that without A Mitzvah to Eat, I would not have had the courage to break my fast on Yom Kippur when I was showing symptoms of lithium toxicity and I would have made myself very ill (or worse) as a result."
