Be a Part of Our Exciting YIS Expansion w/ the 100+ Families Who Have Already Generously Pledged! - Help Us Build the Future of Am Yisrael

MAKE YOUR PLEDGE TODAY

Dear Friends,

Earlier this month, on Shavuot, Rabbi Morgenstern shared with us a compelling case for how and why our YIS Capital Campaign is so important, not just for the future of our community - for our children and grandchildren - but also for the future of an engaged, vibrant and connected Am Yisrael in this country. 

And now, as the summer begins to set in, we are now already focusing on creating a beautiful and meaningful High Holiday experience for all, as well as, planning another exciting and inspiring programmatic calendar that will continue to impact and elevate our community. 

So as we start to think about the new year, we should all take great pride in what our community has accomplished just this past year. Working together we celebrated countless Semachot, welcomed families from the Gaza periphery from Kibbutz Alumim and incredible Chayalim from an IDF reserve unit. We came together for a communal Friday night dinner in December and a fabulous Purim Seudah in March where hundreds anttended annd enjoyed. We hosted 24 special guest speakers and learned over 4300+ hours of weekday learning. We also came together to, once again, fight anti-semitism in our community. Our community has demonstrated a tremendous amount of Achdut in our commitment to Am Yisrael and Medinat Yisrael. Together we have accomplished a great deal and together we will continue to grow our community and strengthen the Jewish community worldwide. 

Please help us fulfill our ambitious goal of $15,000,000+. So far, thanks to the incredible generosity of 100+ families in our community, we have already eclipsed $12,500,000 in this exciting capital raise. However, this incredible achievement reflects just 25% of our congregation and we humbly call upon all of you to participate in this once in a generation project in a way that is meaningful to you and to your family. 

Your pledge (which can be paid out over 3 - 5 years) will secure the Jewish future for years to come in our expanded facility that will serve the needs of the thousands that will continue to hear our unique message, be inspired by our Shul's dynamic energy and live our Jewish lives in a way that perpetuates a love of Torah, Am Yisrael, and Medinat Yisrael. 

Thank you, in advance, for your commitment to partner with us in

“Building the Future of Am Yisrael, One Brick at a Time”.
