Society Hill SynagogueYoung Friends(20- and 30-somethings)
The Young Friends of Society Hill Synagogue bring together 20- and 30-somethings — singles and couples — for Shabbat dinners, holiday celebrations, happy hours, and other gatherings here at the synagogue and throughout Greater Philadelphia. A large number of our congregation’s newer members are in their 20s and 30s, and we’re excited to offer an expanding array of programs for them, with leadership from Young Friends Co-Chairs Anna Wiener, Louis Polcin, and Alexis Rosen.
If you would like to learn more and get to know fellow 20- and 30-somethings in a fun, welcoming ambiance, please contact Anna, Louis, and Alexis at youngfriends(at)societyhillsynagogue.org. We look forward to meeting you!
