The difference between these two is caring about something
enough to help make it a better place.
We have many people who have taken action and I am very
thankful for them. To mention just a few: Linda Retchin made last weekend's
Progressive dinner happen; Stacie Gabert made the Itzhak Perlman concert
happen; Howard Kalfus is making
Nominations for the '14 Board happen;
Cynthia Pasackow, Jan Orlansky, Jennifer Hyman, Susan Zimmerman are
leading Committee as Chairpersons. None
of these would have happened without the help of others who stepped up to
help. Thanks to all for taking time out
of your busy schedule to make good things happen around Temple.
One area that few people have taken action is changing their
spending habits just a little to bring more money to Temple. I am asking you to take action here. This is very important since by doing this,
it will provide non-dues revenue every year with 4% to 18% of every purchase
going to our Temple. We recently started
a new program directly with Hannaford's where 5% goes to Temple. You will need to plan ahead a little to
purchase these cards through Temple. You
may use PayPal or a Check to Temple for Scrip.
You may use a Check for Hannaford.
An example - we have 170 members (individual or family) in
our congregation.
·
If 100 members buy $200 groceries a month from
Shaws or Hannaford - Temple will get $12,000
·
If 100 members buy $200 stuff from LL Bean a
month - Temple will get $36,000.
Please email or call me so I can have someone walk you
through setting this up.
Another area that I ask you to take action is becoming or
Chair of a committee. Howard Kalfus is
busy filling the open positions right now.
Thanks to all for making Temple Sinai a great place to be.
