Federation-Synagogue Partnership Welcomes High Holiday Worshippers

Since 1999, the High Holiday Welcome Program – a joint venture of the Greater Miami Jewish Federation, the Rabbinical Association of Greater Miami and participating area synagogues – has enabled tens of thousands of worshippers to enjoy Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur services at no cost to participants.

Through allocations from the Annual Federation/UJA Campaign, as well as supplemental gifts from generous donors, Federation has underwritten the cost of High Holiday seats so that every Jewish person in Miami-Dade County has the opportunity to take part in these meaningful days of prayer.

All seats are being offered to unaffiliated participants in a community synagogue. To accommodate the large number of worshippers and to ensure security, advance reservations are required for participation in the High Holiday Welcome Program.

Registration is now closed.
