The Sukkah Project

Description

We provide a discount on items for family Sukkot observance to any group that requests it. In return we ask those groups to help spread the word about our sukkah kits. Participating groups can choose either to pass these savings on to their members—who could order directly from us at the discounted prices—or they could set it up as a fundraiser. If this is of interest, please call and speak to Steve or Judith for more details.

From the start our intention has been to enable any family to build a sukkah, and this is why we try to keep the cost low. Here's how. First, we do almost all the work ourselves, things like designing the advertising, filling screw bags, cutting wood slats, packing & shipping boxes, taking orders—everything is done by family members in our workshop. So we're a very efficient, low-overhead operation. Second, we deal directly with our customers rather than selling to stores or wholesalers who would resell the kits at a higher price. Everybody gets wholesale from us. Third, we use industrial grade materials that are less expensive but still do the job. We trust that there are lots of things our customers will do on their own to beautify and customize their sukkah, so we don't have to include lots of expensive frills or fancy materials in what we sell. Finally, we maintain a reasonable profit margin across the board. We know there is room for us to get a higher price for our kits, but that is not why we got into this business.

We encourage groups to contact us for information about how to promote a local Sukkah building program in your school, shul or chavura. We provide group discounts.
