The following describes the key points of the campaign, and explains why the best way to contribute is to commit to annual donations in each of the remaining two years, 2023 & 2024.

Overall goal: to increase TBE’s endowment by $1.8m by the end of 2024

Motivation: to secure TBE’s financial future, including by:

• Providing $80k in annual payout  (about 15% of the revenues needed for General Operations), thereby significantly reducing the current budget shortfall
• Providing a reserve fund for major capital replacement needs
• Sustaining and enhancing temple programs

Remaining Fundraising Goals:

• To raise $50k in 2023
• To raise $100k in 2024, TBE's Centennial year

Lead Donor Challenge:

• Providing that the fundraising goals are achieved, anonymous lead donors have committed to donating over $1.3m
• In addition, the lead donors have committed to donating $250k in bridge funding to sustain operations until the endowment is grown
• To date, the lead donors have contributed $700k
