CITY INTRO

Jews are part of SF since the days of the gold rush in the 1840s. In 1906 an earthquake and a fire destroyed most of the city and little remains from that earlier period. Many of these early pioneers were successful in business. In later generations the extensive philanthropy of these first families – Fleishhacker, Haas, Koshland, Stern, Steinhardt, Dinkelspiel, Zellerbach and others – made their names well-known in Northern California. In modern times the community got intertwined with both the counter-culture and the gay rights movement, which took hold in the area in the late 1960s. The House of Love and Prayer founded by Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach, drew many spiritually minded young Jews.
