Sustaining Membership
What is a Sustaining Member?
Sustaining Membership ensures the ongoing strength and resiliency of the temple and its mission, giving above and beyond traditional congregational commitment. Sustaining Members sustain Temple Beth El!
Where are the additional funds used?
Contributions provide the synagogue with a dependable base of revenue to sustain the programs, education, worship, clergy services and pastoral care upon which our community relies. These funds will help ensure that no family is turned away, that no child is denied a religious school education, and that in times of great need we may assist those who require our help.
Why become a Sustaining Member?
Temple Beth El has thrived for over half a century thanks to loyal support from our Sustaining Members.
This commitment helps to protect the future of our synagogue for our children and our children’s children.
Who can become a Sustaining Member?
You can!
