The Need
- Thriving and growing community of Boise is challenged without a mikvah
- The entire state of Idaho does not have a mikvah
- Boise, Idaho is the most remote urban Area in the continental USA
- Closest mikvah: Salt Lake City, Utah (5 hours each way by car; 1 hour by airplane)
- Over 300 families in the Jewish community
- Women currently travel over 5 hours to nearest mikvah
