Our Mission
Located on the Congregation Gates of Prayer campus, the Fried Center welcomes learners of all ages to come together to explore Jewish heritage through hands-on learning, immersive experiences, and meaningful service.
Here, our participants deepen their connection to Jewish life, build lasting community ties, and play an active role in shaping the vibrant Jewish future.

Visit us for a weekend or as an alternative to spring/winter break. We also offer one-day retreats, perfect for local groups.
You choose the topic, and
we plan your visit!

Guided by Jewish values, we lead participants in hands-on service projects tackling the social, environmental, and other issues that impact our local and regional community.

When disaster strikes, the Fried Center will be there. We work with local, state, and regional relief organizations to coordinate aid, assistance, and recovery for affected communities.
