JCM's tomorrow

So far we have raised $3583 - $6417 to go!

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. 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.
