50 New Rochester Families is a community-building initiative focused on helping new households become part of Rochester’s Jewish community. Created by Congregation Beth Sholom and Rabbi Dov Winston, the effort aims to welcome 50 new families over five years through personal guidance, relationship-building, and practical support around relocation. The initiative connects newcomers with synagogues, schools, employment considerations, community resources, and local attractions, while highlighting Rochester’s Jewish educational opportunities and broader communal infrastructure, including the Jewish Community Center, Jewish Federation, and other local organizations.
