Donate

Temple Shir Shalom is supported entirely by the dues and additional contributions of its members and friends. As with most synagogues, the total dues obligation of the entire membership covers only about 1/2 of the annual budget. The balance is made up from voluntary contributions in excess of the dues obligation, and fees for various activities (primarily Religious School tuition). 

The Rabbi, the congregation, and the Board of Temple Shir Shalom work hard to provide the very best environment possible for Reform Judaism in Gainesville, for the benefit of the community at large and for all who seek the warmth and comfort of a caring Reform congregation. As a member or friend, please consider engaging in this work by making a donation! Please contact the Temple office if you have any questions or would like to establish a scheduled payment plan for dues, tuition, or donations. If you are making a donation to the Sisterhood, please designate that in the Detail Box.
