Charitable Donations to Betenu

In addition to the popular Torah Fund, Congregation Betenu maintains several different funds to which donors can earmark tax-deductable charitable contributions. The General Fund is applied to various purposes at the discretion of the board. The Rabbi's Discretionary Fund empowers our rabbi to supply money to a variety of causes as he sees the need arise. The Library Fund is used to buy books and related supplies. The Prayer Book Fund is used to keep the sanctuary supplied with books to meet the needs of different services. The Building Fund is used to meet expenses on the current building, as well as to eventually grow or replace the facilities to meet future needs.
