Wondering how you might celebrate the festival of lights this year? Sefaria’s got you covered. We've put together eight meaningful ways for you to celebrate with loved ones — connecting, gifting, and giving.
1. Chavruta
Want to see your loved ones face-to-face as you study Jewish texts this Chanukah? Try our new video chat tool Chavruta. Choose a text that you would like to study, open Chavruta, and invite a friend or relative to join you!
2. Portable Power Bank Giveaway
Are you a fan of using Sefaria anywhere, anytime? Keep your devices charged with a portable power bank by visiting Sefaria's Instagram (@SefariaProject) to enter our power bank giveaway! Enter throughout Chanukah and check back on the last night to see if you’re one of three lucky winners.

You can become a Sefaria Sustainer. Your gift (to us!) of only $10 — or more — per month will have an immediate impact on Sefaria's ongoing activities like adding new texts and features. Make a monthly donation today to join the community of over 800 Sustainers!
4. New Tech from Powered by Sefaria
