Volunteer Info

Do you know the difference between there, their, and they’re? Have you always wanted to be a published writer? Can you write a coherent essay made up of well-structured sentences and paragraphs? Do you have deeply hidden stores of humor, snark, and irreverent cynicism? If you answered yes to any of the above, we’d like to hear from you.

Unpious.com is looking for volunteer writers, editors, and all-around awesome people to assist with this all-around awesome project. You don’t need to be ex-Hasidic to sign up. You don’t even have to be Jewish – or even human (we draw the line at homo erectus, although it helps if you have experience with cave drawings).  All you need is a willingness to write articles, edit the dubious grammar of otherwise awesome writers, and witness the revolution in progress from a front-row seat.

We’re also looking for assistance with planning and assisting with Unpious-hosted events. Side benefits include helping yourself to alcoholic beverages before everyone else, judging whether attendees are hot enough to enter, and eating all the leftover kreplech at the end (provided, of course, you provide the kreplech).

Volunteers will receive our long-lasting gratitude and will be held in very high esteem by all humanity – or at least the segment that counts: our hundreds of readers, writers, fans, and groupies.

To sign up, or for more info, contact Shulem (a/k/a Hasidic Rebel) at: hasidicrebel@gmail.com.

If you happen to know his phone number (which, with a little effort, is not difficult to come by), you may call him during reasonable hours of day and night.

  • The Self-fulfilling Prophecies of the Ex-Hasid The Self-fulfilling Prophecies of the Ex-Hasid

    Do ex-Hasidim serve themselves well by establishing a community? Or does that only amplify the narrative of struggle and displacement, inevitably confining them to the fringes?
