Dear {{first_name}}, On a recent Friday night and on Facebook, we asked our community the following question: What is the first word/phrase that comes to mind when you think of Temple Shaari Emeth? As you can see in the graphic, the answers were diverse and wide ranging, representing the multitude of ways TSE meets the needs of our congregation.
Our Temple is committed to supporting our community in every stage of life, from joyous Brit Milahs to educational opportunities for our Renaissance learning groups. As we look ahead to this upcoming new year, our goal is to make this Jewish experience available to every person in our vibrant community. In order to do so, we rely on your continued support as dues alone do not cover all of our operating expenses.
With your partnership, we can:
Develop top-tier interactive and educational experiences at the Early Learning Center and Religious School
Provide a safe environment for our congregation and guests with increased security
Sustain our vibrant and diverse community
Provide families with learning opportunities to explore Jewish life and celebration
Maintain and beautify our Temple’s facilities
Pursue the ideals of Tikkun Olam through our social justice work
Ensure that every family can be a part of our community, regardless of financial means
Your gift allows us to accomplish more than what we can with dues alone. This year, we hope to have the entire congregation participate in our Annual Appeal. Can we count on your support of Temple Shaari Emeth?
To make a gift to our Annual Appeal, please click here, or respond to this letter with your pledge or gift. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to reach out to Stuart Brown, Executive Director,sbrown@shaariemeth.org or 732/462-7744. Shana Tovah and we wish you a healthy and happy new year.
L'Shalom,
Fabian Burstyn, President
Rabbi Melina Panken
Together, we can ensure a Jewish future for generations to come.
