Danforth Jewish Circle
Joyous, inclusive, accessible, inspiring, and musical, the Danforth Jewish Circle is helping to create a fresh, progressive vision of Jewish community, learning, and spiritual practice in downtown Toronto.
Welcome!
The Bayit Campaign
The Danforth Jewish Circle community has come a long way since our leaders, Cantor Lisa, and then Rabbi Miriam, provided a foundation of which we are all proud. The DJC is a place, a home, that welcomes all and where Liberal Judaism has an opportunity to flourish. We are moving forward and will build on our Bayit’s solid base.
Rising costs, new and expanded programs as well as outreach to members, new and continuing, are all critical goals that require your support. Join us in achieving our vision. Help us build our home, our Bayit, through your kind donation.
