Congregation Kol Ami

Dear Kol Ami Community,

We want to say thank you for your generous support of our sacred community. It is your holy partnership that sustains and nurtures our congregation all year long, allowing us to be innovative, creative and spiritually strong. When you donate to Congregation Kol Ami to support our streaming worship and programs, when you make a yahrzeit donation or a donation to one of the many programmatic funds in honor or memory of someone, you are transforming, upholding and reinvigorating Jewish life, tradition and Jewish values.

Thank you for your continued contributions and support. Let us continue to deepen our bonds of friendship and community with each other. Thank you. A copy of this acknowledgement letter can also be found on our website here. 
With love and gratitude,

Congregation Kol Ami
