Moishe House Chicago – RSJ
Hello or priviet! Welcome to the RSJ community Moishe House run by Ben, Shifra, and Chana. We are a home for all Soviet Heritage Jews and for the most fun you’ll have without getting your babushka worried. Whether you’re looking for durak tournaments, a taste of homemade blinchiki, or somewhere to talk about the latest NBA draft, we’re the place to be. Join us for friendly gatherings, cultural events, and meaningful conversations as we build a strong and supportive community together. Stop by for a cup of chai, we can’t wait to meet you!
We Are Looking for New Residents!
Moishe House is seeking young adults between the ages of 22-32 who are excited about living with others and creating a Jewish community for their peers. Residents of the house receive a generous rent subsidy, programming budget and staff support to host several programs each month. This commitment includes professional and leadership development, flexibility based on your personal interests and connects you to a renowned global community.
