Hello, fellow CBJ’ers,
I hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving celebration, with much to be thankful for, and are looking forward to a festive Chanukah and holiday season coming up very soon.
The first Chanukah candle will be lit on Wednesday night, December 25th. I am taking orders now for your gift card needs for your latkes, New Year’s, and everyday grocery shopping, your gift giving, your family’s personal needs for the holidays and into 2025.
For all your shopping needs, why not consider purchasing gift cards through CBJ – but don’t consider them only as “gift” cards. Use them for items you buy, instead of using cash or credit. By buying these cards, (at no extra cost to you), the synagogue will receive a percentage of your purchase, up to 12% from some stores. This is a quick, easy and no-cost way to support CBJ!
If you want to see what cards are available, go to raiseright.com, hit “Brands” and you will find a huge variety of cards and the percentages CBJ will receive. You will find Visa (with NO activation fee), grocery, big box, drug, sporting goods, and home improvement stores along with gas stations, restaurants, travel, entertainment venues, and so much more.
To place your gift card order, please email it to Jean Friedman at rfjfx3@gmail.com by Wednesday, December 11th. Your cards will be available early the following week. You may pick them up at CBJ or at Jean’s house in BG. Your check made out to Congregation Beth Judea, or Zelle are accepted at pick-up, or you may use your credit card but a 4% service fee will be added to the total. CBJ has no cards in inventory, so make sure to order now all you will be needing for the next few months.
Ron and I wish you a joyous holiday season and a happy, healthy 2025. Thank you for your support of this fundraising program. All profits will support CBJ.
Chag Sameach,
