Giving is a fundamental obligation of Jewish life and a core facet of our Jewish identity. Each individual act of tzedakah expresses and conveys a basic Jewish value and connects us to the overarching pursuit of repairing and bettering our world.
Congregation B’nai Israel depends on the support of devoted individuals to help continue our inspired worship, educational programs, and cultural and social action activities. Each gift helps us maintain the spirit and strength of Congregation B’nai Israel, not just today but also tomorrow.
