Dear Congregation Sinai,
Our Campaign for Tomorrow capital campaign 50% match will close at the end of 2020. Thank you to all those who have supported this critical fundraiser. Through your generosity we have raised almost $2,000,000 and Sinai’s financial future has been solidified for many more years. If you have not made a pledge to our Campaign or if you would like to increase your original pledge, please do so now. All pledges received prior to December 31, 2020 receive the 50% match, so please take advantage of the very generous match.

In addition to a cash (check) contribution, you can make donations to Sinai by transferring stock or by using your IRA distributions.

  • Sinai’s brokerage account makes it easy to complete transfers of appreciated stock. Sinai will immediately sell the stock and credit the net proceeds as your contribution to the campaign. Contributions of publicly-traded stock held more than one year are generally deductible at the average of the low and high trading prices on the date of transfer. You then avoid the tax inherent on the gain in stock value and you get a charitable contribution for the full value of the net proceeds.

  • Another efficient way to support Sinai is through IRA distributions. IRA rules allow individuals who are 70 1/2 years old and over to direct up to $100,000 per year of their IRA distributions to a charity without paying tax on the amount distributed to the charity. If you have any interest in either path, contact Karen Berk for more information.

Our gratitude to our entire congregation is immeasurable. We here at Sinai wish you and your families continued health and safety as we enter the winter holiday season. We hope to see you all very soon.
