There are so many ways to participate, from engaging your community to pilot a parashah, to making a collective gift, to introducing us to potential new funders.

Join a pilot.
Bring your congregation into the conversation!
We want this new text to be rooted in our community, so we’re piloting portions of the text across the Reform Movement. In the last two years, dozens of rabbis and cantors and hundreds of congregants from over 250 congregations engaged with our draft and provided thoughtful, detailed feedback to help our editors and advisory boards make decisions on the content and design.
Upcoming opportunities to join a pilot include:
- The URJ Biennial: December 10–13, 2026
- In your local community: December 12, 2026
- CCAR Convention: March 14–17, 2027
Dedicate a section or give a gift.
It takes a village to fund a project of this magnitude, and we’ve been moved by how the entire movement is coming together to make it happen. There are still a few opportunities left to dedicate a parashah, haftarah, biblical figure, strand of commentary, a book of Torah, or one of the ancillary educational pieces.
Many congregations are dedicating a section collectively—a meaningful way to support Torah together!
To explore a dedication opportunity, contact Rachel Perten, Director of Advancement, at rperten@ccarnet.org.
Support the commentary today with a gift large or small.
