Honor a Life Cycle Event – Nediv Lev / “a generous heart”

Our community members often mark life events through the Torah’s injunction to give to others and support community from “nediv lev / a generous heart.” (Exodus 25:1-2)

Donations can be made in memory or in honor of someone special; for life cycle occasions such as a Bar, Bat, Bet or B’nei Mitzvah, wedding, new children, graduations; as an act of tzedekah or commitment to social justice (Tikkun Olam);  in memory of your loved ones following a loss or to mark a Yarzheit anniversary; for times of givine throughout the year such as “#GivingTuesday,” to mark special events, End-of-Year donations, gratitude for community members, or when you are moved to help the synagogue grow and offer services and programs.  We are deeply appreciative to you for these significant moments of giving.

Participate!

One of the best forms of support is to simply be a part of it and give of yourself.  “The only way to get it together is together!” — Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi z”l.  Attend services, bring younger ones to a Tot Shabbat, bring teens or the whole family to special events, join or start an adult discussion, introduce yourself to new faces, attend a Shivah, drop off food, invite someone over for a Shabbat potluck or conversation, see how many generations you can get at one table, plan an event, cook for the Latke Factory, help a food drive, share your ideas, join the Board of Directors or a committee the excites you.  Thank you for making Beit Ahavah a community of many hands and hearts.
