Choosing how your gift is used

Greatest Need. Provide unrestricted funds to be applied where they are needed most.

Building Fund. Provide the needed funds for sustaining and maintaining our building.

Designated Gifts. Donate to a program or service that is meaningful to you. Your gift will be used for the intended purpose. For example, designated gifts could be made for the following purposes: education, music, scholarship, social activities, youth, and Israeli programming.

Endowment Funds. Ensure a perpetual stream of income to support programs and resources at Temple Beth El. A gift to an endowment fund is held in perpetuity with administrative fees and distributions transferred to the operating budget annually for their intended purpose according to the guidelines established by the Temple Beth El Board of Trustees. Johnson Bank serves as the manager of these funds.

Temple Beth El Endowment Funds
