FUNDRAISING REPORT  

 

Todah Rabah for your generous support of our CBI Kol Nidre campaign and to Dr. David and Janice LeVine, our co-chairs.  If you have not made your pledge, please speak with Sara Latham in the CBI office.  Please help make our goal this year!

 

Todah Rabah to Laurie Reiskind for chairing the CBI Membership Directory and to everyone who placed ads.  The Directory is now being printed and will be mailed shortly.

 

Our next important fundraisers are the Gift and Craft Show and Gelt Giveaway on December 10thand 11th. Plan to do your personal holiday shopping and buy a Gelt drawing ticket individually or as a group. 

 

Also, as the holidays approach, remember to order SCRIP gift cards for restaurants, entertainment, and shopping.  Contact Jay Kauffman or the CBI office.

 

As always, purchasing leaves on the Tree of Life to celebrate simchas and ordering Memorial Plaques for your loved ones who have passed,  are another way of financially supporting our shul.
