Save the date - 

We'll be having a Friday night prayer service next week, Friday, Dec. 31st at 6:00 pm. 

This year Chabad of the Bay Area set out to raise $54,000 in a triple-match campaign. With your help we not only hit the goal, but even surpassed our bonus goal of $60,000!

Thank you to all who have joined in so generously to help support and partner with Chabad of the Bay Area in providing warm, inclusive, vibrant Jewish life and education in the Bay Area of Houston!

We would like to give an extra special thank you to our Matchers who helped make this campaign possible:

The Stephen Falk Family, Jack & Joanna Sasiene, Shlomi & Hadassah Wolraich, Mardy Schweitzer, Ida Diamond and Daniel & Sarah Emunah Wein

We know that Tzedakah is always a vessel for great blessings from above. In the merit of your generosity, may Hashem bless all of you with good health, happiness and abundant prosperity!

 Please take into consideration:

• This is our main annual fundraiser, so your participation makes a big difference.
   
• Funds generated from this campaign help enable the year-round activities that Chabad Bay Area runs for the benefit of our community. 
   
• DID YOU KNOW that while Chabad is indeed a leading and inspiring force for Jewish life around the world, Chabad Bay Area, like most other Chabads, is 100% local and financially independent. We don't receive nor send any funds from/to any regional or national office. All of our funding comes from individuals, like yourself, who appreciate and value what we do.
   
• Our goal is to enrich Jewish life and community, not to fundraise. We believe that money should never be a barrier between a Jew and Judaism. That is why we don't require membership, nor do we like to ask for funds very often.
   
• At this special year-end Matching Campaign we ask that you consider joining in generously. From your heart. Experience the joy of the Mitzvah of Tzedakah!
