In honor of Pride Month, Honeymoon Israel invites you to celebrate and uplift the LGBTQIA+ community by hosting a Pride Shabbat meal with your fellow HMI alumni.

This is a special opportunity to bring your local HMI community together around the Shabbat table—to share a meaningful meal, build deeper connections, and learn together. Whether you’re an experienced host or trying this for the first time, we’ve got your back. We’ll provide you with educational materials (take a look HERE for a great one!), and will be in touch to help you create a warm, inclusive, and celebratory experience.

As part of your gathering, we also invite you to write notes of affirmation to trans youth. These handwritten notes will be included in care packages alongside gender-affirming items such as chest binders or femme shape wear—offering love, support, and hope from one community to another.

Ready to host your Pride Shabbat? Apply for a grant to help cover your costs and let us support you every step of the way.
