What a splash-tacular day!
Last weekend, our Gesher community came together for an afternoon of sunshine, laughter, friendship, and plenty of water-filled fun at our annual pool party. Events like these create opportunities for connection, belonging, and joyful experiences that everyone deserves.
Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make lasting summer memories.

Two planets. One beautiful reminder.
At Gesher, we believe that when people come together, something special happens. Strong communities are built through connection, understanding, and inclusion, ensuring that people of all abilities have opportunities to contribute and belong.

Tonight, Venus and Jupiter will appear close together in the night sky in a celestial event called a "Cosmic Kiss." It's a beautiful reminder that we shine brightest when we're connected.

As you look up at the stars, we hope you'll take a moment to appreciate the relationships and community connections that make life brighter for all of us.

Two bright planets, Venus and Jupiter, will be visible as they snuggle up close in the sky. We show you where and when to view.

This weekend, we invite our members, families, and friends to join us for a special Simchat Shabbat service. Together, we will gather in friendship, reflection, and connection as we honor the values that bring our community together.
Whether you join us in person or simply hold our community in your thoughts, we wish you a Shabbat filled with peace, meaning, and moments of joy.
Shabbat Shalom.

Strikes, smiles, and so much fun!

Gesher members had an amazing time bowling yesterday, enjoying an afternoon filled with laughter and connection. Events like these create meaningful opportunities for people of all abilities to get together in an inclusive and welcoming environment where everyone can participate, build friendships, and have fun.

At Gesher, we are proud to create experiences that bring our members out into the community and remind us all that everyone deserves a place to belong. This special outing was made possible through the generosity of family foundation whose support helps create these meaningful community experiences for our members.
