Supporting Israel Helps CBI
Perform a triple mitzvah by supporting the Jewish National Fund (JNF), Congregation B’nai Israel (CBI), and the United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism (USCJ). Buy or donate using this form. From your purchase or gift, 20% will return to CBI and another 5% will go to USCJ to assist congregational Israel advocacy programs.
We at CBI can:

- Extend assistance for our youth, especially USYers, to attend AIPAC, JNF, and other pro-Israel events.
- Create congregational / community events for support of CBI’s JNF Projects, eg, Tu B’Shvat Seder.
- Contribute to costs of bringing top-notch programs and speakers to CBI-hosted Israel advocacy events.
You can:
- Plant trees in Israel in honor or memory of friends or loved ones.
- Make a donation to any of JNF’s many projects in Israel.
- Purchase anything from the JNF store.
