The Annual Campaign 2024 launched in May. Our goal is to raise $1,000,000 by Chanukah. In these challenging times, the strength of our community has never been more critical. Holy Blossom Temple stands as a beacon of Jewish life, culture, and learning in Toronto. We are more than just a synagogue; we are a family, a support system, and a voice for Jewish values in our broader community. This year’s campaign is a “Mezuzah Campaign” – symbolizing protection and open doors. We invite you to help keep our doors open wide to all who seek a Jewish home by giving to the Annual Campaign. Your gift, regardless of the amount, is a powerful statement of your commitment to our shared future.
Our gratitude extends to each congregant who has already made their gift to Annual Campaign 2024. If you have not yet made your donation, you can donate online now or connect with our Development Administrator Mercy Afuye at [email protected] or by phone at 416-789-3291 ex. 227.
Thank you to our generous donors!
