Gifts and Memorials

Adath Israel provides many opportunities for donations that commemorate joyous family and congregational events or honor the memory of loved ones. At the same time, these donations contribute to the well-being of our synagogue. In the Jewish tradition, donations recognize anniversaries, weddings, birthdays, births, baby namings, graduations, conversions, Bar and Bat Mitzvahs and other special events or life cycles. By giving, you, your family, and your friends will feel good and you will be helping Adath. Good deeds such as these come in all sizes.
