Torah Fund 23-24

Friends,

The Torah Fund campaign has been an integral part of Beth Shalom Sisterhood. This campaign has enables Women’s League tosupport the future leaders of Conservative Judaism.

Thanks to your generosity, we help committed Jewish students become the rabbis, cantors, educators, synagogue administrators, social workers, scholars, researchers, and lay leaders of tomorrow. When you support Torah Fund, you help educate students in New York, Los Angeles, Israel, Latin America, and Europe-and you align with those who value learning, knowledge and providing thefuture generation with relevant skills to fortify the Jewish people.

We are here to announce the 2023-2024 Kol Yisrael Arevim Zeh Ba’Zeh Campaign– All the people of Israel are responsible for one another. MAKE IT A PRIORITY TO GIVE TO TORAH FUND!

This year’s Torah Fund pin highlights the word ‘arevut,’responsibility. It corresponds to the theme from the Babylonian Talmud, Shevuot 39a, that all the people of Israel are responsible for one another, and we assume that responsibility through our support of the five Conservative/Masorti institutions of higher education.

We would like to thank you for your past participation in the Torah Fund Campaign. We are asking that you consider one of the Benefactor levels below:

Keter Kavod $5,000   

Scholarship Patron $2,500  

Patron $1,200

Associate Patron $600

Benefactor $180

Anyone who gives in one of the amounts listed above will receive the AREVUT pin. If you send your donation in beforeSeptember 11, 2023, we will see that you have your pin to wear to the synagogue during the High Holiday Services.

If you are unable to give at one of the above levels, we encourage you to make any size donation you arecomfortable with. Anyone who contributes $10 or more is welcome to join us at the Torah Fund event which will be in 2024.

We hope you will continue to support Torah Fund as you have in the past. We look forward to your help in making this year’scampaign a huge success. Enclosed is an envelope for your convenience.
