What is the Honor Society? Since the requested standard terumah covers only a portion of Temple Emanuel's expenses, it is through additional financial gifts that we are able to meet our financial obligations. Because of our Honor Society, Temple Emanuel is able to take pride in never turning an adult away from membership or a child away from a Jewish education due to financial hardship or an inability to meet the standard terumah. Your contribution is key to making us a caring and inclusive community.
