Acts of tzedakah (righteous giving) reflect the traditional Jewish value of caring for others, essential to the sacred mission of The Community Synagogue. Your donation sustains the holy work of our congregation to provide spiritually enriching opportunities for our members, the broader Port Washington community and the wider world in which we live.

 
 

Your tzedakah supports:

  • Worship services and Jewish holiday programs 
  • Religious School and Youth Groups 
  • Social, religious and educational programming
  • Our ability to welcome all who wish to affiliate with the congregation, whatever their status or stage in life
  • Our historic and beautiful building
  • The connection we make with other Reform Jews in the United States and around the world
  • Our wide-ranging efforts to repair the world (tikkun olam)
 

Your generosity enables us to expand upon our mission to create a kehillah k’doshah — a sacred community — in which your donation makes you an integral part. We are deeply grateful.

The Community Synagogue offers many opportunities for tzedakah (righteous giving).  The generosity of our members and so many others helps sustain our congregation, the broader Port Washington Community and the world in which we live.  Donations can add to the joy of simchas, help comfort those who have suffered a loss, honor an individual, provide funds for tikkun olam (healing the world), and much more. 

Your donation to one of the funds listed will be used as specified. If you don't have a favorite, we suggest our Synagogue Fund, which offers the greatest flexibility in providing funding wherever the need is greatest.
