Review for The Jewish Congregation of Maui, Kihei, HI, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I love the people, the place, the atmosphere. It is friendly, warm, and accepting. Some people attending don't know anything, while others know a lot, but everyone feels comfortable at their own level because of the guidance of the rabbi. The synagogue also serves as a place for people to socially interact and meet other Jews. It's overall a wonderful place to be.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

I've witnessed the community pull together to help others in need. People have gone out of their way to be kind and supportive of other Jews who were in need of some kind of support whether from illness, a death in the family, or financial crisis.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

The people. I've made some lasting friendships and have met very interesting people.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

super!

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

make such a positive impact on the Jewish community of Maui. As a result of that, the wider community would benefit as well. Social services could expand, more youth programs could be created, opportunities for social and religious activities. . .

Ways to make it better...

The organization didn't have to struggle so much with making ends meet. If we didn't have to worry about covering costs for the many events, classes, and services offered.
