BUILDING CAMPAIGN

Building for the Future

Building for the Future

For over half a century, Young Israel of Queens Valley has stood as a cornerstone of Torah, tefillah, and community. With deep roots and a vibrant present, our shul has served generations — welcoming families, hosting simchas, inspiring growth, and anchoring Jewish life in Queens Valley.

Now, we stand at a critical juncture.

As our community continues to flourish, our physical home must evolve to meet the growing needs of this generation and the next. From aging infrastructure to outdated amenities, our building is in drastic need of a comprehensive renovation — one that reflects our values, enhances our programming, and provides a dignified and inspiring space for tefillah, learning, and community gathering.

The Vision

This ambitious refresh campaign will completely reimagine our facility while honoring the sanctity of what has always made YIQV special. With modern architecture, enhanced acoustics, blast-resistant windows, and a brighter, more open layout, we will create a space that is beautiful, functional, and safe.

From a grand main sanctuary and expanded Ezras Nashim, to modern classrooms and a welcoming lobby with updated washing stations and coatroom — every element of this project is designed with inclusivity, comfort, and flexibility in mind.
