p.s. If you want to attend, but can't afford the $75, please reach out to Ellyn and we can put together a volunteer/trade for you :)
If you don't give today, how can we be here tomorrow?
You may not need us every day, or even every week. But when you want us, you need us to be here.
Please give a gift to JCM as we wrap up 2022. We rely solely on donations/memberships to pay our bills, our salaries, and programming. Your gift now will ensure that our dynamic leadership team has the resources we need to be here for you and your Maui Jewish community.
Give with joy, give with pride, give today.
p.s. We're not spending money and using resources to send out letters, this is this our ask and our reminder to you that we do not exist without you.
You will need to RSVP...how else will know how many people to shop for?! Come to as many parties as you want. We look forward to celebrating together!
