Thanks to all who participated in the 2026 Purim fundraiser, the largest we have right now. This year we raised about $6,000 to help maintain our synagogue.
This project wouldn’t be successful without community donations and volunteers. Thanks to the bag stuffers (below) and the drivers: Dan Lund, Art & Shary Auer, Rebecca Smith, Ruth & Arthur Limon, Jeremy Milarsky, Mandana Hakimi and JR Farthing.
Thanks to the behind-the-scenes help: Seth Rosner, Steve Weinstein, Amanda Rainey (Goldie’s) and Mary Hartigan.
Your Purim project team –
Debi Tolchin-Kupferer & Rick Diamant
