Supporting Our Future with the Torah Fund

Dear Women of Beth El,

The theme for the 2024-25 Torah Fund campaign is Am Yisrael Chai - All people of Israel live!

The Torah Fund mission is to help optimize educational opportunities for our future Jewish leaders. When you contribute, you enhance the education of these future Jewish leaders at the Jewish Theological Seminary (JTS). 

Am Yisrael Chai is an expression of Jewish solidarity for the Jewish nation and the continuity of the Jewish people. We help ensure the future of worldwide Jewish communities through our support of the five Conservative/Masorti institutions of higher education.

Beth El has reaped the benefits of the education provided by the JTS, because Rabbi Rosen, Rabbi Tobenstein, Rabbi Garber, Rabbi Zerin and Cantor Ness are all graduates of the JTS. Most of the students at these schools cannot afford to be there on their own. The scholarships and programs funded by Torah Fund help them make ends meet. They can’t do it alone, and Torah Fund can’t do it without you.

Torah Fund would welcome your Benefactor ($180.00) or Guardian ($300.00) donations, and as a thank you, we will send you the beautiful pin shown above. We also welcome ANY OTHER AMOUNT that you would like to donate.

Thank you for your help in supporting the future generation of Conservative Jewish clergy, teachers, and lay leaders!

Please make out checks to TORAH FUND and send them to Jill Jones as soon as possible, but no later than December 1 at:

Beth El Temple
Attn: Jill Jones
2626 Albany Avenue
West Hartford, CT 06117

Please note that this donation can no longer be made through your account at Beth El or through the Beth El office.

Sincerely,

Jill Jones                                                            Michelle Kunzman
