Bimah and Mechitzah
Ramath Orah is in the midst of a building improvement campaign to make our sanctuary more accessible for all. To date, we have installed an internal ramp to make it easier for individuals who use a wheelchair to access the bimah, glass panels around the bimah to make it easier to see, and are improving the quality of our hand rails.

Continued improvement relies on every member to contribute. Whereas your general membership dues support operations, this contribution is earmarked for building accessibility improvements. You may learn about our ongoing plans on the bimah and mechitzah campaign, and may contribute on that web page, or you may make a conctribution below at the same time that you are renewing your membership.
