Membership

Membership at Old Westbury Hebrew Congregation is . . . 

* Affirming your belief in the values and mission of our OWHC community.
* Getting more involved - serve on a committee, organize an event, and share your expertise with your community.
* Adding your voice to those passionately seeking the welfare of the Land of Israel, our fellow Jews, our earth, and all humankind in need.
* Investing yourself in the future of OWHC.
* Celebrating a Simcha in a space to which you feel a deep-rooted connection.
* Having a community to support you and your family during challenging times and offering that support in turn.
* Being asked to help make a Minyan for Shiva or bring food to someone’s home later in the day.
* Recognizing that the opportunities to give, connect and grow are the most important benefits of joining OWHC. 

*These fees are voluntary.  All other fees and assessments are mandatory.

All submitted applications are subject to approval.

Membership is about helping to support our values and core mission, allowing us to continue to do the important work we do, and provide vital services for the Jewish community.

We have a number of membership categories, including special rates for Seniors, Associates (members of other congregations) and Out-of-towners.

No one will be turned away from membership for financial reasons. Please contact our Executive Director (director@owhc.org or 516-333-7977, extension 3), and she'll gladly forward your information to our Financial Secretary who can work with you to reach an arrangement concerning dues (including payment plans and discounts) in a completely private manner.  It is more important for you to be a part of our community as a member, and contribute what you can, than to not join or renew your membership at all.  We sincerely appreciate your support at whatever level you are able to give.
