You are invited to be part of this historic congregation by joining and becoming a

Friend of Mickve Israel

Friends of Mickve Israel are a vital part of this historic congregation.  Non-residents of Savannah and its surrounding communities can become Friends members, and with the help of your membership our historic synagogue will continue to provide a warm welcoming home to all those who visit Savannah. 

 Friends of Mickve Israel is a society of people who support the work of our congregation.  They may be members of other congregations or live a great distance away from Savannah.  Founded in 1733, we are approaching our 275th anniversary, and we welcome you to become a part of the Mickve Israel extended family.

 Our Friends members help connect us to the outer world, and they make it possible for this historic Jewish community to survive and thrive.  Funds from the Friends of Mickve Israel are used to maintain our beautiful sanctuary and our museum.  Your membership contributes to the celebration of the Jewish heritage of Savannah and this special synagogue and community. 

 Various levels of membership are available to you with a wide range of member benefits.  Contact us to learn how you can join today!
