The Monadnock Havurah is a group of families and individuals in the Monadnock region of New Hampshire. The goal of our Havurah is to celebrate and commemorate Israel and the Jewish faith and people. We will engage both adults and children in cultural and historical discussions, socializing, prayers, Tikkun Olam, Tzedakah, holiday celebrations and other related activities.
