At the Sacred Slaughter Institute, we are dedicated to reviving an ancient, sacred tradition — training (ritual slaughterers) and inspectors in the halakhic art of shechita, rooted in compassion & integrity. Our students learn both the spiritual and technical dimensions of sacred slaughter, ensuring that kosher meat is produced with respect for the animal, the land, and our shared heritage.
Your support helps us:
Expand training opportunities for students from diverse Jewish communities.
Provide scholarships and sliding-scale tuition so that financial barriers never block access to this sacred learning.
Strengthen local community resilience by fostering self-sufficiency in kosher food practice. sacredslaughter.com
Promote compassionate, ethical practices in line with halakha and humane care for animals.
Every gift — whether large or small — sustains a living tradition that honors every creature and keeps our communities connected to ancient wisdom and ethical practice.
