Ways to Give

Whether you give to the Yad B’Yad Annual Fund or a specialized endowment, your tax-deductible contribution to our Congregation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, is an investment in the relationships that strengthen our community, our faith, one another, and the world beyond our walls.

Give to the Yad B’Yad Annual Fund

Yad B’ Yad, Hebrew for “Hand in Hand,” is an apt name for this effort that brings members together to sustain our community. WHC’s membership revenues and fees support only 50% of our annual operating costs, and Yad B’Yad helps bridge that gap.

Make a Planned Gift

You can leave a lasting legacy at Washington Hebrew Congregation by including the Temple in your estate plans through a bequest, charitable trust, life insurance policy, or another appropriate vehicle. Become a member of the 1852 Legacy Society.

Sponsor a Program or Event

Special events, such as speakers, classes, concerts, and programs, provide opportunities for you to share your good name and let the community know that you care about Washington Hebrew Congregation and believe that a strong Temple benefits everyone.

Sustaining Membership

Sustaining Members contribute more than standard annual membership fees to ensure Washington Hebrew’s ongoing strength and resiliency and keep membership affordable to all. Both an act of tzedakah and a reflection of faith in our shared Jewish future, Sustaining Membership provides the synagogue with a dependable base of revenue used to sustain the programs, education, worship, clergy services and pastoral care upon which our community relies.

Make a Tribute Gift

Donations made in honor, memory, or appreciation of your family, friends, or colleagues are always welcome. We send a lovely notecard to notify the honoree and recognize your contribution in our monthly magazine, the WHC Journal. You can choose if your contribution should be used for our greatest needs, designated for one of our programs, or a gift to one of our endowment funds.
