Preschool & Temple need a boiler
Donation protected
We are a congregation that teaches tzedakah "charity". We have always been in the position to give, but now find ourselves asking to receive.
Temple Beth Sholom has been serving the Bay Area since 1886, when a small group of committed Jews came across the Bay to form the San Leandro Hebrew Congregation. Almost 120 years later, Temple Beth Sholom continues to commit itself to Judaism, the Jewish People, and the Jewish heritage. It holds a vibrant, diverse and warm environment, which continues to grow and evolve for modern day needs and sensibilities.
We also have a thriving multi-cultural preschool. All kids are welcome and we are proud of the diversity of our preschool kids and teachers. At Beth Sholom Preschool, children learn lifelong skills: to like themselves, to explore and to discover the world around them, to solve problems, to make friends and to develop social skills.
We are asking the greater community to help us fix our boiler so we can heat our building again. Our congregation is only 100 families and we alone can not raise all of the funds to replace the boiler. There is a limited amount of heat and during the school day, the children and teachers are too cold. The sanctuary is also cold for our aging congregation that comes to worship. With winter just starting we are at a critical time to get the boiler fixed. This boiler is from the 50's.
We are ready to hire a contractor to get this done, but need the money. Any amount of Tzedakah is welcome and appreciated. Thank you from our warm hearts.
