A Message To Each Of Us From Judith…
“The 2023 High Holiday Matching Gift Campaign”
As the High Holidays approach and we come together as a vibrant community in our spiritual home of 125 years, we set aside worldly distractions in repentance and in prayer. We come together to celebrate with our community.
YOU are that community. YOU make our community thrive. YOU are responsible for our success and our vitality.
We need YOU to join our 2023 High Holiday Leadership Donors, who are making this a banner year, surpassing last year’s record-breaking donations. The Leadership Donors who are contributing $10,000 or $5,000 or $2,500 or $1,250 are making it possible for us to match your gift 2:1.
That makes your contribution even more significant this year. So don’t rest on assumptions. Every dollar matters. Every contribution makes a difference.
Our shul is our community responsibility. And our success rests with all of us. Your personal investment is an investment in the community and the longevity of our spiritual home for generations to come.

YOU can really make a difference. L’Shanah Tovah. — Judith K. Weiner
