The Rabbinic Endowment Fund
The Board of Directors of the Adams Street Shul has established a new endowment fund, tentatively called "The Rabbinic Endowment Fund." The Fund's principle will be invested in CJP's Jewish Community Endowment Pool. Annual income from the Fund may be used to help fulfill the shul’s contractual obligations to its rabbi.
The Fund has been launched with a bequest from the Estate of Sadie Greenwald, an anonymous donation from a local charitable trust, and numerous donations in honor of Beri Gilfix. All of us are encouraged to make donations to this new Rabbinic Endowment Fund, so that someday our financial ability to have a rabbi may be secure in perpetuity.
The Rabbinic Endowment Fund brings the number of our endowed funds to three; it joins the the Gilfix-Galpern Family Flower Fund, and the Preservation Endowment Fund.
