Intermarriage. The Shidduch Crisis. When it comes to dating and marriage,
the Jewish People have some hurdles to overcome. But the good news is,
you can make a difference - all it takes is 1.5 hours, and an open mind.
Date Smarter is a 3-session chavruta-style journey that’s deeply Jewish, refreshingly real, and practically transformative. Each participant is paired with a mentor to explore foundational Jewish texts and modern relationship tools in three short, guided conversations. As a mentor for Date Smarter, you’ll be paired with one participant who you’ll guide through three 30-minute study sessions, at a time that works for you. You’ll be your mentee’s sounding board, reflection partner, and steady presence—helping them:
You’ll receive a complete mentor guide, suggested questions, and support throughout. So you don’t need to be an expert—just real, thoughtful, and willing to listen. Plus: If you’re single, you’ll be invited to our global Tu B’Av speed dating event, where you can put what you’ve studied with your partner into practice.
In 3 short sessions, help your partner gain the clarity and tools they’ll need to date confidently:
Explore how to identify true compatibility vs. surface chemistry. Help you partner clarify their values and recognize deal-breakers before they’re emotionally invested.
Discover tools to navigate uncertainty and tell the difference between normal relationship ups and downs and genuine red flags, so your partner can make dating decisions with confidence.
Understand how to build emotional safety, healthy communication, and a shared vision that survives real life and lays the foundation for lasting relationships.
You’ll be paired with someone ready to grow and reflect, who matches your unique mentor profile.
Each week for 3 weeks, you’ll meet for a 30-minute conversation based on Jewish wisdom and real relationship tools.
Help them gain clarity, spot patterns, and date with more intention—while reflecting on your own journey, too.
If you’re single, you’ll get priority access to our Tu B’Av event—with up to 7 pre-screened matches. (By the way, did we mention our last event had over 6,500 attendees?)
Torah was always meant to be a conversation. Mentoring through Date Smarter is a chance to bring that conversation into the places that matter most—relationships, choices, the kind of Jewish home we want to build.
You don’t have to be a scholar. You just need to care. You’ll go through Jewish texts, explore ideas together, and help someone discover how Jewish wisdom can shape their real-life relationships. And along the way, you just might find that the conversations change you, too.
