We just witnessed such a wonderful fundraiser. With over 260 donors and over $110,000 raised in 36 hours!
Thank you all so much for your participation in this event. Of the many things that stand out for me with this fundraiser is:
- People really love our community. Every one of us touches people’s lives, whether by greeting them, offering hospitality, or just by being yourself, our community has made hundreds of people feel warm and accepted. By being part of the community, you took part in the fundraiser and in fact, you are the fundraiser!
- The amount that people donated, was huge. Whether the donation was big or small, every donation counts; they are all big.
- To those of you who made calls or sent out texts or other shares, you made a huge difference.
- If you made calls, you did more than reach out to people. You gave them an opportunity to give, and in some instances, you were even rewarded with great humility.
Thank you all so much for all that you do,
Rabbi Nachi Klein
