Dear Chaver/Friend:

If you would like a low-tech and more personal option, please contact us. We are happy to accept your annual pledge over the phone or via email to confirm your payment preferences and timeline.

We encourage you to set up ACH (automatic payment from your bank, credit, or debit card). In doing so, you save yourself time and effort and help B'nai save time and resources.

B'nai Havurah accepts e-checks (just like actual checks, but the transaction is online and the processing cost to B'nai Havurah is minimal), debit, credit cards (MasterCard, Visa, and Discover), and of course, checks and cash.

However you plan to pay, you can split your pledge into monthly, quarterly, or semi-monthly payments. Or, you can pay all at once.

If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to either of us.

Thank you!

Tamara Hertz and Becky Epstein - 303-388-4441
Email: tamara@bnaihavurah.org or exec@bnaihavurah.org

P.S. If you'd like us to postage mail you your 2022 Pledge Form that you can complete and send back to us, please let us know. We're happy to do so.

4. YOUR FINANCIAL COMMITMENT

In order for B'nai Havurah to meet our 2022 financial commitments, our overall revenue requirement is about $500,000. This averages out to approximately $2,200 per member family. We fully recognize that some can give more, others less. Click here to view our 2022 Budget. (Note our budget is accessible once you log in to our website.)

Your financial support is greatly appreciated.

There will be other opportunities to support your community than your commitment below for membership dues, the Other Half Annual Fund, Tikkun Olam, and Social Justice. We thank you for your careful consideration!

Whatever your pledge, we thank you for choosing to (re)commit as a B'nai Havurah member. Your presence and participation are integral to our collective well-being.

Membership Dues

Your payments may be broken down into equal payments monthly, semi-monthly, or quarterly! We ask that your total pledge is paid by the end of November.

Cash is not the only way to make a financial contribution to B'nai Havurah! Donating appreciated securities -- like stock, bonds, or mutual funds -- can be an even better way to contribute for some folks. By doing so, you avoid paying taxes on the capital gains resulting from a sale and more goes to B'nai. A Required Minimum Distribution from your IRA (for those in this age group), this method satisfies that obligation, too. Talk to your tax advisor, then contact our office on how to donate.

5. YOUR TOTAL COMMITMENT

YOUR TOTAL COMMITMENT: 2022 Membership Dues, The Other Half, Tikkun Olam, and Social Action

YOU DECIDE WHEN AND HOW TO PAY!

Once you hit the "Submit" button on the bottom of this page, you will go to a payment page. You will select how often you plan to make your payments on this page. Options include monthly, semi-monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or a one-time payment (you can pay at the time you finalize your pledge, or you can set a date when you plan to pay.).

Paying by credit card or e-check: You will have the option of B'nai charging your credit card or (e-check) on the payment date(s) you have selected, automatically. See more about e-check below.

We encourage you to set up an automatic payment(s). Automatic payments are gaining in popularity, since there is no need for your remember to pay and this process takes less staff time, once your payments are set up. Please note: In order to do this, you need to be logged in to ShulCloud.

Note: If you plan to select pay your 2022 Annual Commitment in one payment, you will have the opportunity to choose between two options on the payment page (the page you will see when you click on "Submit" below) in a pull-down menu.

The first option is to pay ONCE NOW: if you select this, payment is immediate.

If you plan to pay all at once but later in the year, choose the second option, ONCE LATER. See snapshot below:

Click on SUBMIT below to finalize your pledge for your Membership Dues, The Other Half, and Social Justice.

On the next screen, you will be asked to indicate how you would like to make payments (we accept e-checks in addition to credit cards), and how you would like to break down your payments.

Note: Selecting e-check for your payment option means that funds will automatically be deducted from your checking account. To set this up, you will be prompted to enter the username and password you use for your online bank account. The system ShulCloud uses to securely process your payment is called Plaid. If you have trouble with this, please call us.

We thank you for joining us in 2022!
