Support Opportunities

Kehillah Support Opportunities
How to donate, the Kehillah way: We encourage you to make your donations with intentionality – kavannah is one of Kehillah’s 18 Core Values. Here are ideas to help you do this:

  • Direct your donation to our Torah Fund that helps to maintain our rescued Holocaust Torah.
  • Dedicate a prayerbook – Purchase a special bookplate for our Gates of Prayer siddurim that will commemorate Kehillah’s first year and honor you or whomever you choose. Each $36.00 donation will purchase one bookplate.
  • For the loved ones in your thoughts, the Kehillah Memorial Board is available to you to honor loved ones who have passed away. Our beautiful, lasting remembrance is on display at every service, just inside the sanctuary doorway. Engraved brass plaques, $180 each, serve to honor your loved ones and support the growth of the Kehillah community, which in turn supports you in all your Jewish endeavors and spirituality.
  • Lifecyle events – Honor a loved one or friend with a donation commemorating a birthday, wedding, anniversary, graduation, or anything for which you’d like to express appreciation.

“The good will of good people – and people who want to be good people – can bring about grand and glorious changes in the world, and these changes can be far more dazzling and extensive than we would normally think possible… The actual doing of the mitzvah of tzedakah is the simplest-of-simple-things: we just do it, and marvelous things happen.” -Danny Siegel

Kehillah of Arizona welcomes financial support in any amount. Your donations of time aka “sweat equity” and in-kind donations are also much appreciated!

An Open Letter to Klal Yisrael, Members of the Jewish People, here and in Israel:
Rabbi Sharfman's Blog

The Prophet Micah taught: God has told you, O mortal, what is good; and what is required of you – to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with God (Micah 6:8)   Despicable acts are being committed against women and children, from the Egged Bus discrimination to the ongoing violence in [...]
