In addition to maintaining the financial health of Beth Sholom by paying your dues and participating in our fundraising efforts, there are many other opportunities for you to contribute to our community. These opportunities have the potential to bring a sense of fulfillment and connection to your Jewish identity and expression, and will profoundly impact our community. Please check the opportunities below that you would like to participate in.

Please note that this is a new form and if you completed it last year your choices are not carried forward. Our hope is that every congregant will be able to commit to at least one category.
