By contributing to Congregation Beth Shalom, you help us continue to create meaningful programs and support for all stages of Jewish life. There are many ways you can help Beth Shalom with a tax-deductible donation that has an immediate impact, or a gift that helps sustains our community for the next generation.
While general donations allow the synagogue to allocate resources where needed most, our designated funds offer you the opportunity to earmark your contribution towards specific areas you care about. Choose a fund that resonates with your values and aspirations, and help us build a strong future together.
