David created Romemu out of nothing. In less than 10 years, Romemu has become a fast-growing community of committed seekers drawing across faith traditions. The prayer services are incredibly moving, the learning opportunities are very strong, and neo-Hasidic joy permeates much of what we do. Best of all is the growing sense of community with people who feel a true spiritual home in a place that really wants each person just to be their authentic self. David made this.

Watch an interview with Rabbi Ingber:
Did you know that only 2% of Forward readers donate to support our nonprofit newsroom? That 2% make it possible for millions to read the Forward without a paywall or subscription — removing any barriers to the full and fair Jewish story.
But while the Forward is free to read, it isn’t free to produce. Big stories — like deep dives into the antisemitism data, political scoops or reporting trips to college campuses — take months of research and fact-checking. All while we keep you informed of what you need to know each day.
