Volunteer with MACoM
Hold space for a sacred moment.
MACoM is able to provide meaningful immersions because of its volunteer mikvah guides. Guides welcome each guest, explain the immersion process, offer information and resources, and may witness the immersion when requested.
Every visit is personal. Guides help establish MACoM as a safe, supportive, and holy space for people arriving with different identities, backgrounds, and reasons for immersion.
Thank you for considering this important commitment to MACoM and the wider Jewish community.
