Temple Israel Funds

Like many religious institutions and non-profit organizations, Temple Israel has numerous ways that you can help the Temple meet its daily and yearly operational expenses through specialized fundraising initiatives.  We sincerely appreciate the thoughtfulness of those who remember and honor their friends and loved ones through their generous contributions:

ANNUAL DUES

There are now several ways you can pay your annual membership fee.  You may continue to send a check to the Temple office or you may now pay your annual dues online, secure and fast. Want to spread out your annual dues over 12 months?  We can do that now too.  Just click on the "Donate" button and pay your balance in full or call the office and we will break your agreed upon annual dues into monthly payments and we will take care of the rest.
