Base
Where tradition comes to life
Base is like your favorite neighborhood hangout – if your favorite hangout was a rabbi’s house where you gather for Shabbat dinners, have thought-provoking discussions, and ask all your questions about Judaism (yes, even the tricky ones).
Bases are pluralistic communities, meaning there’s no “one right way” to do Judaism here. Relationships take center stage – whether it’s with peers, rabbis, or Jewish life itself. It’s where tradition and real life meet, creating connections as dynamic and diverse as the people who walk through the door.

Jewish Life, In Real Life: Base takes Jewish life beyond the usual spaces. Whether it’s a holiday gathering, a deep dive into Jewish learning, or teaming up for a service project, Bases are places where young adults can explore Judaism in ways that feel authentic, meaningful, and relevant.
A Rabbi Just Like You: At Base, our rabbis open their homes to create spaces that feel like family. Yes, they’re here to guide, teach, and support—but also to sit next to you, share stories, and wrestle with the same big questions you are.
A Community to Call Your Own: Base brings Jewish young adults, interfaith couples, and curious people alike together to build a community rooted in shared experiences, meaningful connections, and a sense of belonging.
Find Your Base
With locations across North America, Base is where Jewish young adults in their 20s and 30s come to connect, learn, and celebrate in a space that feels like home. From Shabbat dinners to coffee chats, Base is your place to build community and explore Jewish life.
It All Adds Up
We believe that how we do our work is just as important as the work itself.
Every conversation, gathering, and celebration is part of a bigger picture. By partnering with external evaluators, our funders, consultants, and our community to measure our impact, we ensure our work is not only meaningful today but lays the foundation for tomorrow.
At Mem Global, we believe that Jewish spaces are enriched by the diversity of those who join them. Whether you’re reconnecting with Judaism, exploring it for the first time, or have always felt deeply connected, this is a place for you. We welcome people of all backgrounds.
