PARTNERS DETROIT’S PRE PESACH 
WONDER WOMAN EVENT – APRIL 6:
The Partners Detroit Women’s Division Team hosted a pre-Pesach 
Wonder Woman event where women of all ages from the Metro 
Detroit Jewish community came together to get inspired and excited 
for the holiday. “I think the idea behind the whole evening was to 
celebrate the power of a woman to affect her family and bring in the 
holiday to her family with excitement, spirituality and relevance,” 
said Shaindel Fink, a member of the Women’s Division Team.

JEWISH YOUNG PROFESSIONALS - APRIL 7:
Partners Detroit Jewish Young Professionals hosted a 
Passover rehearsal dinner at their Platform 18 space in Royal 
Oak. “Our goal of the program was to have a mock seder. 
Like a seder type feel and experience while also just enjoy-
ing a fun night out with their friends,” said Erin Stiebel, an 
educator with the organization. Rabbi Leiby Burnham led 
the seder and walked through the seder from an educational 
perspective.
