UPDATE: We are almost there - but not in the clear yet! Please accept this as a friendly reminder to join the KSH Mid-Summer Appeal campaign!

You know how much I despise fundraising and how rare it is for me to turn to you for financial assistance. But for the sake of our beautiful community – I need to reach out for your help to make ends meet this summer.

In the last three years, we have a built a glorious Kehillah together, one that is a source of pride and joy for each and everyone of us. The summer months are always difficult, but this summer in particular, I find myself trying to keep this ship sailing and I am asking you to partner with us in ensuring that our Kehillah can sail smoothly through the summer!

How can you help?
Just answer YES to one of these three questions!

1. Membership. Are you ready to become a proud member of Kehillat Shaar HaShamayim, or - if you already are a member - upgrade your membership? 

(Monthly membership rates are: Single, $72; Family, $101; Donor, $180 or $360)

2. Rent. Would you join us in our mission of impacting lives at the Kehillat Shaar HaShamayim campus by generously sponsoring a month (or half-month) of rent?

(Rent at our main campus currently costs us $1554 a month. Just 12 such monthly sponsorships, or even half-month sponsorships at $777, will take a great financial burden off of our community and allow us to focus on the things that are truly important.)

3. Donation. Would you like to make a special, one-time, tax-deductible donation of any amount? 

Thank you so much for today's generous donation!

With love, thanks, and many blessings for a beautiful and enjoyable summer,

Rabbi Yonatan Y. Halevy

Just answer YES to one of these three questions!

1. Membership. Are you ready to become a proud member of Kehillat Shaar HaShamayim, or - if you already are a member - upgrade your membership? 

(Monthly membership rates are: Single, $72; Family, $101; Donor, $180 or $360)

2. Rent. Would you join us in our mission of impacting lives at the Kehillat Shaar HaShamayim campus by generously sponsoring a month (or half-month) of rent?

(Rent at our main campus currently costs us $1554 a month. Just 12 such monthly sponsorships, or even half-month sponsorships at $777, will take a great financial burden off of our community and allow us to focus on the things that are truly important.)

3. Donation. Would you like to make a special, one-time, tax-deductible donation of any amount? 

Thank you so much for today's generous donation!

With love, thanks, and many blessings for a beautiful and enjoyable summer,

Rabbi Yonatan Y. Halevy
Spiritual Leader
Shiviti – Kehillat Shaar HaShamayim

Join Kehillat Shaar HaShamayim as Rabbi Yonatan continues his annual summer classes with a new series focused on sharing with us inspirational wisdom and insight from the letters of Chachamim throughout the ages!
