Spring 2016 Fundraiser
Update 5/24/16 - We are two-thirds of the way to our goal - please help us cross the finish line! |
This July, Yavneh begins its seventh year as a vibrant Jewish congregation. On behalf of Yavneh's Board of Directors, I invite you to make a financial contribution to ensure that we can continue to thrive for many years.
Whether you actively participate in Yavneh’s many worship, learning and social programs, or partake of them on only an occasional basis; whether you’ve had occasion to call on Yavneh’s resources (including our wonderful Rabbi and Cantor!), or just like knowing that they will be available when the need arises; or even if you simply appreciate the role that Yavneh plays in the broader life of the Raleigh community, I hope you will agree that Yavneh merits your support.
Yavneh operates on an extremely modest annual budget of $80,000, covering the salaries of our Rabbi, Cantor, and administrator, as well as programming costs, insurance, facilities rentals, and other expenses. Membership fees and donations tied to specific programs and events support a considerable proportion of our financial needs. However, because of our commitment to making membership and activities affordable to all, these income sources fall short of the total needed. Thus, we rely on additional support from the community to meet our yearly budget: simply put, we need to raise $20,000 to meet our budget for the current fiscal year, which ends in June.
Please make your donation by clicking on the "donate" button above, or, if you prefer mail your check to Yavneh, 4030 Wake Forest Rd, Suite 300, Raleigh, NC 27609. Either way, know that you will have my heartfelt appreciation, that of the Yavneh Board, and the entire Yavneh community for your much needed support.
Thank you,
