Annual Appeal

As we approach the High Holy Days, I’m writing to ask for your support of Temple Ner Tamid’s Annual Appeal. Your gifts are critical to sustaining our ongoing operations – from programming and staffing to building maintenance. Your support enables TNT to function as the thriving Jewish community that serves us all year round.


In these challenging times, Temple Ner Tamid continues to serve as our Jewish home and sanctuary. Whether you join us every Shabbat, for holidays and lifecycle events, or less often due to distance or life’s circumstances, this is your Jewish home too. We are all part of this cornerstone of Jewish life.


While we’re in the quiet phase of a capital campaign to renovate and expand TNT, I ask for your support of our Annual Appeal to cover ongoing expenses. Like planning for our family’s future – we save for retirement but must also pay the mortgage and buy groceries today. Our Annual Appeal pays the bills now while we plan for tomorrow. No gift is too small, and we hope you’ll consider giving at a level that brings you joy and meaning.


L’Shana Tova u’Metuka – may it be a good and sweet year.


With gratitude,


Andrew Slutzky

Vice President of Development
