Kiddush Sponsorship

The Yavneh Minyan is proud to serve both Kiddush and Seudah Shelishit every Shabbat. Please help us to defray the costs by sponsoring Kiddush and/or Seudah Shelishit.

To arrange to sponsor a Kiddush or a Seudah Shelishit, please contact Miriam Benzaquen.

Kiddush Sponsorship Rates and Policies

  • Member rate for the sponsorship of a Basic Shabbat Kiddush is $220.
  • There is an additional $220 charge for non-Members. This $220 non-Member charge may be credited towards Membership dues if the sponsor joins the Minyan within 6 months of the kiddush.
  • Basic Kiddush consists of: cake, soda/drinks, snacks and paper goods. Please see below for additional options that may be added to the Kiddush at extra cost.

Sharing Dates
