Pledge for our kitchen
We want to give our rabbi and our community the kitchen we need to grow and thrive. As the rabbis say: “Without Bread, No Torah.”

But before we can renovate the kitchen, we need to replace the roof!

Honor Rabbi Liza with a pledge to the Kitchen Plus Fund.

Kitchen Menschen
Our children can earn money to contribute toward the kitchen by pledging to do household work or other chores. Download the Kitchen Menschen pledge form. Questions? Contact Anne Kalis at eitzeducator@gmail.com.

Post a tribute
When did Rabbi Liza make a difference in your life, or the life of your family, your community or your organization? This is your chance to tell her with a photo and a message. SHHHH! The Rabbi will not see this until Hanukkah—please keep all content quiet.
