A Passover seder with the family you never knew you had.
Don’t forget to donate! This streaming Passover seder benefits the CDC Foundation COVID-19 Emergency Response Fund.
TOTAL RAISED: $3.5 million…and counting!
Rooted in tradition but rewritten to include comedy, music, and sketches, SATURDAY NIGHT SEDER was a grassroots effort put together in just over two weeks at the start of the pandemic in 2020 by a small team working remotely around the country. It premiered to an audience of more than 1 million viewers, and to date has raised more than $3.5 million for the CDC Foundation COVID-19 Emergency Response Fund.
In a time of confinement and uncertainty, a ragtag team of Jews and non-Jewish Passover enthusiasts felt it was more important than ever to channel creative energies and gather community to reinterpret the timeless story of liberation and renewal while raising money for those on the front lines enduring — and fighting — an actual plague.
SATURDAY NIGHT SEDER is considered one of the first great examples of pandemic fundraising programming, and is widely hailed as ushering in an era of entertainment using the medium.
This year, we invite you to watch Saturday Night Seder safely with your family or chosen family, near or apart. We invite you to come as you are and enjoy sitting around the virtual table once more.
