Why I donate to Torah Fund
The Torah Fund theme for 2022–23 is Chazak v'Ematz , which means ‘Be Strong and Couragouos’. As the Israelites get ready to enter the Promised Land, the leadership transitions from Moses to Joshua. The Israelites and Joshua are instructed to “be strong and courageous” (Deuteronomy 31:6, 7, 23; Joshua 1:6, 7, 9, 18). The 5783 (2022-2023) Torah Fund pin represents 80 years of ever-increasing strength of the global mission of Torah Fund. Torah Fund began in 1942 as a scholarship fund and later supported undergraduate housing and programming for each generation of rabbis, cantors, scholars, educators, chaplains, and campus Jewish leaders.
Our strong and courageous supporters have kept Torah Fund thriving for 80 years, allowing us to complete numerous projects to further the education of our future Jewish leaders. We’re delighted to celebrate our 80th anniversary and to provide a Plus $80 option for donors to make an additional contribution above their annual gift in recognition of this noteworthy milestone.
Individual donors to Torah Fund at the Benefactor level or higher receive a stunning Torah Fund pin in recognition of their gift.
