FAQs
Does Rodeph Sholom rent facilities to those who are not CRS members?
Yes, we welcome both members and non-members to rent our facilities.
Does Rodeph Sholom have non-profit rental rates?
Yes, we have a discounted rate for non-profit organizations.
Can I rent one of the venues on a Sunday even though the building is closed?
Yes, however there is an additional opening fee.
What is Rodeph Sholom’s dietary policy?
No biblically prohibited foods, including pork or shellfish may be brought in or served on CRS property. Items obviously containing meat or dairy may not be served during the same course of a multi-course meal. Single course meals (e.g. buffets) may either have meat or dairy products served, but not both. Meat served may be, but does not have to be, kosher.
CRS strives to be nut-sensitive to the extent reasonably possible, although CRS can make no promises that food served on CRS premises was prepared at a nut-free facility or is entirely free from traces of nuts. It is CRS policy that no nuts or any food item made with or containing nuts be served on CRS premises.
I would like to sponsor a Kiddush for the congregation in honor of a lifecycle event. How do I go about doing this?
You are welcome to sponsor a Kiddush in honor of a lifecycle event by sending in a monetary donation ($225 for Erev Shabbat and $125 for Shabbat Services) which covers the cost of the challah, cookies, wine, and juice following services. We will announce the sponsorship in the Shabbat Shalom and from the bimah. You may also enhance the regular Kiddush by having platters delivered from one of our approved caterers. Please contact Rachael Evans, Operations Director, at revans@crsnyc.org to plan a sponsored Kiddush or for further information.
