Like all synagogues, Kol Tikvah relies on contributions from every family to support our general operations, hire staff, run and maintain programs and to sustain our community. This year, we understand life has changed for many of you, and we want to help make joining a Temple Community a much more tangible option for everyone.
We are happy to offer all first year members, at any level a suggestion contribution of $1,800 for households with one adult, $2,500 for households with 2 adults.
We recognize many of you may need further assistance, and if this applies to you, simply choose the financial assistance request box and a Senior Staff member will contact you to further discuss your arrangement.
If you are able to give more, please consider joining our Hazak Circle, (Circle of Strength)
Please note when choosing your commitment level that school tuition and the mandatory annual security fee are in addition to your membership commitment.
