WHAT IS DISHMAYA?

Dishmaya literally means "from the Heaven".

We started organically, with Rabbi Sagi and Alizah Chekroun opening their hearts and home to dozens of young women reaching out in need of a community and supportive environment. Our reach extends to groups of tourists and students looking for an inspiring and warm place to go.

Dishmaya disseminates a joyful and relatable Judaism, where participants can make their inherited identity their own, feel fully welcome and supported in trying times for the Jewish People as a whole.
