Dear Fellow Bogrim and Friends,

Each of our classes is currently commemorating our twentieth anniversary since we were students at Gush.  These pictures attest to the fact that much has changed since our days at Yeshivat Har Etzion, but with all that has changed, the mission has stayed the same – to merge the best in traditional Jewish learning with a formidable grasp of the modern world.

Help us commemorate this milestone year by raising funds for scholarship gifts from each of our classes.  A full scholarship costs $20,000, and our goal is for our two machzorim to give two scholarships back to the Yeshiva for a total of $40,000. We are also proud to be collecting this scholarship money in memory of our dear friend Yaakov Matanky, z”l. “Tank” left us too soon, but the role he played infusing our years with friendship, joy and learning is unforgettable.

We would be thrilled to achieve 100% participation – no gift is too small.  If you give an annual gift to the Etzion Foundation, we ask you to think about adding to your gift to help us reach our goal.

If you’ve never given, this year would be a meaningful one to make a gift.  A gift of $300 will provide for your registration to our online event, taking place Sunday June 6, 10:00 AM EDT, where the scholarship campaign will be recognized.

Thank you for joining us to help us reach our goal!
