Membership at Chabad

Dear Friends, 

We are writing to express our hope that you will join or renew your membership at our amazing, one-of-a-kind shul, Chabad of Silver Spring. We are grateful to our current shul members for your ongoing support and commitment to Chabad. Chabad’s numerous programs and activities, as well as the daily operation of the shul are completely supported by members of our community here in Silver Spring. We are equally grateful to our current community supporters of the Chabad school, camp, and events for your understanding of the importance of the shul for the greater Silver Spring community. It would truly mean a tremendous amount to us if you would show your support for Chabad by formally joining the shul as members.

Chabad relies exclusively on community support to continue to provide daily davening, youth programming, adult education, women’s events, community meals/holiday celebrations, guest speakers, as well as maintenance and security of the building and so much more. As of this letter, membership donations only account for approximately 35% of Chabad’s operating costs and the remaining amount continues to be a shortfall.  At present, Chabad has no choice but to make ends meet by using funds from other fundraising initiatives for the shul. Simply put, we need increased member participation to fund the continued operation of Chabad.

All members will be acknowledged on the Donor Board located in the shul lobby.  In addition, if you would like to sponsor a week or month of Chabad's work (e.g., to commemorate a special occasion or significant life event), please contact us and you will also be acknowledged on the Donor board and in the Chabad of Silver Spring newsletter that is disseminated to over a thousand people on a weekly basis.

We truly need your support and commitment to help Chabad continue to serve you, your family, and the entire Silver Spring community.

Please view the membership levels and payment options and kindly complete the form with your selection at your earliest convenience. If you would like to discuss your membership options personally, please contact anyone on the membership committee at any time.

Thank you very much for your support and commitment.

Sincerely,

The Membership Committee
