MORE POWERFUL TOGETHER

Your gift is an affirmation of our long-standing congregational history of impacting lives.

Temple Emanu-El is unique in allocating funds raised on Yom Kippur and throughout the year for programs and services for those in need. Each year, the Congregation donates 100% of the funds raised by the Philanthropic Fund to worthy local and global causes.

• Rebuilding community infrastructure through support of Reform synagogues and community centers in Israel

Strengthening the Jewish Experience

• Combating antisemitism and promoting Judaism across New York college campuses
• Educating and training Jewish professionals for the next generation
• Aiding active-duty Jewish military personnel and veterans

Helping Vulnerable New Yorkers

• Upholding the dignity of seniors and Holocaust survivors
• Supporting the Tikkun Olam Committee’s work serving New Yorkers of all ages in need

Providing International Humanitarian Aid
