The Talmidé Sepharad Fund is dedicated to supporting the next generation of Sepharadi rabbinic leaders and scholars by making their education and training accessible and sustainable. This unique, community-powered initiative provides tuition scholarships and living stipends to students from diverse Jewish backgrounds who are passionately pursuing Sepharadi rabbinics, tradition, philosophy, minhag, and pastoral leadership. Whether they are engaged in part-time studies while balancing work or pursuing full-time immersion in an institution or with a certified private teacher, the Fund ensures that financial barriers do not prevent these dedicated individuals from enriching our communities with Sepharadi wisdom, values, and guidance.

Our current fundraising goal is $60,000. By contributing to the Talmidé Sepharad Fund, you are investing in the revival and continuity of Sepharadi heritage and leadership for generations to come.

Your generosity empowers students to focus on their studies and spiritual growth without the heavy burden of financial stress, allowing them to fully dedicate themselves to preserving and transmitting the depth and beauty of Sepharadi tradition.

Together, we can nurture a vibrant and flourishing future for the Sepharadi rabbinate and the communities they serve. Join us in this sacred mission to honor our past and build a stronger, united future.
