Annual Fund Update:
|
|
To date we have raised $73,000 toward our $110,000 Annual Fund goal. Nearly $7,000 of these came from our Hanukkah Extravaganza. Kudos to all of those who made this such a success!!
We have a couple more days to try and find donors for a matching grant that could help us raise additional funds toward our goal. The AVI CHAI Foundation in partnership with the Jewish Funders Network, the Partnership for Excellence in Jewish Education, and the Kohelet Foundation are matching any new gifts to Jewish day schools of $10,000 or more from non-parent supporters with 50 cents matched on every dollar. If you know someone who values Jewish Education and might like to take advantage of this unique opportunity, please email Makenzie Means or call 626-797-0204 TODAY!
The deadline has been extended to January 15, 2013.
To date 57% of Weizmann families and 100% of our Board of Trustees have already donated. If you have not yet sent your gift please do so now. Thank you!
