The Other Half Fund Supports Critical Programs of B'nai Havurah - Please Give!
Monday, December 24, 2018 • 16 Tevet 5779
12:00 AM - 11:59 PM 1 week afterB'nai HavurahFor many years, no matter what their financial situation, our members make gifts meaningful to them. We receive donations from $18 up to $6,000. Since 2012, members have donated a total of $438,000.  
B'nai Havurah is involved with a building renovation and accompanying capital campaign in the coming year. It is more important than ever to maintain our existing fundraising programs to support the current operations of our community. 
 
What's important to you as a member of B'nai Havurah and for what are you grateful?
- Our commitment to Tikkun Olam through social justice and social action?
 - Our innovative and Recon-centric religious school?
 - Lay-led study and leadership opportunities?
 

Our warm, welcoming, and inclusive community?
Jammin' Kabbalat Shabbat with Rabbi Evette, Hal Aqua, and fellow musicians? Beatles Shabbat is on December 14th, by the way!
Our bold, musical, and relevant High Holy Day services?
Our library, open to all, featuring thousands of books that are cataloged online?
The preservation of Reconstructionist (Liberal) Judaism in our community?
A caring community that is there for you during joyful and troubling times?
Whatever your reason for supporting B'nai Havurah on this day, please include your name alongside our other 102 families donated to The Other Half! 
In 2018, to date, 102 member families have donated $54,233 toward our $80,000 dollar goal.  With a total of 240 families who belong to B'nai, we have 138 families who have not yet given to this most important annual fund.  If every member family gave what they are able (this does not have to be a large donation - anything!) we will likely reach our goal
Make your donation below or contact me at exec@bnaihavurah.org or call me and I will add your pledge to your account for payment by December 31 or sooner. 
We can really use your support. Thank you for your gift.
