Thousands visit every year. 

It’s a fact. The Kotel has always been a magnet for Jews of all stripes.

Regardless of affiliation, Jews of all ages visit the Kotel, and are inspired in its presence. They come as tourists, visit for a short time, return home… and sadly, the inspiration is lost.

Kotel Connections is a bold new movement that will change this unfortunate cycle that plays out hundreds of thousands of times each year as tourists from around the world stream to the Kotel.

Our team of talented, tenacious, and highly trained networkers will work the crowd every day, at the Kotel plaza and in the Rova. They will introduce themselves to anyone who fits the profile of an unaffiliated tourist.
Most importantly, they will make connections.
“Wow, you live in Seattle? We have an affiliate in Seattle! You definitely want to meet Rabbi Stern when you get back home…”

The connection is made. The spark remains.
B’ezras Hashem, a Jewish family is brought closer to its roots.
