A Hanukkah Tribute to Ailene Sher
The 2017-2018 Annual Appeal is dedicated to the memory of our beloved friend and colleague, Ailene Sher whose legacy will shine bright for many years to come. Join hundreds of congregants and community members in keeping Beth El strong. A gift to Beth El's Annual Appeal supports the sacred work that is accomplished 7 days a week - 365 days a year at Beth El.
From essential educational scholarship for students, healing and mindfulness programs
in the Soul Center, hundreds of compelling educational and cultural programs, to supporting/comforting bereaved families during their time of need, and more, your gift ensures that we can continue to provide the depth and breadth of services and programs that make Beth El a special community.
