Keep Kolot Thriving

Throughout the pandemic, Kolot has transformed, grown, and thrived in the face of extreme challenges. The incredibly generous contributions of this community made our continued existence possible. Now, we invite the whole community to join our campaign to financially support the future of our congregation: Keep Kolot Thriving.

We are accomplishing so much and showing up for one another in so many meaningful ways. Nevertheless, the reality is that while Kolot’s sliding scale dues and open-door High Holy Days ensure access to anyone who wishes to join us, they cover just over half of our expenses. To meet our needs, we are looking for this campaign to raise $350,000+ this year.

Please consider making a gift today that is meaningful to you to sustain this caring and vibrant Jewish community.   

If you have any questions about Keep Kolot Thriving, or how you can support Kolot please don’t hesitate to contact us at brettparker@kolotchayeinu.org.
