Making a donation to the synagogue can have particular meaning for the donor, and can be a wonderful way of honoring, recognizing, or remembering a friend or loved one. Those in whose name the donation is made receive a special written note informing them of the gift. Donors are recognized each month in B’nai Tzedek’s bulletin.

Donations to each fund are used for a particular purpose:
