THE ESTHER MINYAN

The Esther Minyan is a dedicated group of early supporters whose generosity and leadership have laid the foundation for the IKAR Center Capital Campaign. Named in honor of Queen Esther’s courage and resilience, these donors have committed significant resources to ensure IKAR’s vision becomes a reality in the early stages of the campaign. Their contributions provide critical early funding that enables planning, development, and construction to move forward with confidence.
