Chair Fund Campaign – Thank You for Your Support
As we finish this project we want to thank the many families who chose to be a part of this campaign. We believe that the new chairs along with new carpet are a part of creating a beautiful makom tefillah/main sanctuary that everyone can and should be proud of. And so many of you responded positively to this project, helping to make it such a success. To date, 66 families have contributed, we raised nearly $35,000, and covered the overwhelming majority of the cost of the new chairs and carpet.
We also wish to thank everyone for their patience. It took longer than we expected to select the carpet and the fabric for the chairs. But we hope that everyone will love our new look, and will agree, that it was worth the wait.
Thank you to the following families who have made a pledge towards the Chair Fund Campaign. If you have not redeemed your pledge, please do so soon, and if you want to contribute, it is never too late to be a part of it:
