YIS Capital Campaign - Parlor Meeting Sign Ups
In an effort to provide additional information regarding the expansion plan, we will be hosting parlor meetings at homes of Young Israel of Scarsdale families. These parlor meetings will be hosted over the coming weeks and will give you an opportunity to ask any questions and provide other feedback. The following parlor meeting dates are scheduled prior to Pesach.
Please note we are limiting each parlor meeting to a fixed number of congregant families to facilitate dialogue. As a result, we will follow-up with you to confirm the date of the parlor meeting you will be attending.

CALL TO ACTION: GET YOUR TICKETS & SUPPORT OCTOBER 8!
The powerful new documentary, October 8, exposes the alarming rise of antisemitism in the U.S., particularly on college campuses, following the Israel-Gaza war. It reveals how student protests escalated into something far more insidious.
Despite being rejected by film festivals, denied advertising, and struggling for funding, the filmmaker fought to get this story out—and now, for just one week starting March 13, AMC Theatres is giving it a platform.
Right now, seats are still empty—and we need to fill them! Let’s show AMC they made the right decision. Buying a ticket isn’t just watching a film—it’s taking a stand.
🎟 Get your tickets now and help spread the word! Click below for your local showing.
