Shabbat Ki Tavo – the Eruv is UP

:

eruv-up-shana-tovaThe Eruv is sponsored this Shabbat by:

  • Rabbi Yosef Kanefsky in honor of Leon Cohen, Yakov Halalouyan, and the BDJ Daily Minyan Crew.
  • Captain & Mrs. Fain in honor of The LA Eruv Crew.
  • Esti Rosenberg: Happy Birthday to Enrique and Stanley Rosenberg!
  • in honor of the weddings of Danielle and Steven Goldman, and Ruthy and Yoni Dagan

The ERUV is UP

We have had sufficient response from the community to cover the short term financial crisis but not the long term financial issues.  Some of the participating shuls and community members have also satisfied prior commitments, and we have started on a process to establish a broad-based finance committee that will strive to include all of the shuls covered by the LA Eruv.  We intend to work out a short and long term finance strategy so as to avoid future potential shutdowns of the LA Eruv.

Based on the input of the city rabbeim and the Eruv Vaad,  we will be checking and hopefully repairing the ERUV in time to be up for this Shabbos.

However, even with the generous support of many, we are still $100,000 short of what we will need to operate the eruv.  To this end, we are planning a community wide Shabbaton for the Eruv on Parshas Lech Lecha. November 12-13, and would ask for your continued support and generous donations.

The LA ERUV needs your support. We are looking for families willing to take personal responsibility for supporting the LA ERUV on an ongoing basis. The time to offer your support for the LA ERUV is Now. Please consider one of the following methods:

  • Send a check to LA ERUV at 8950 W. Olympic Blvd, Suite 179, Beverly Hills, CA 90211;
  • Donate –one time or monthly -by credit card or Paypal at our website LAERUV.com ; or
  • Email us at info@laeruv.com to arrange a donation personally.

The eruv is sponsored by Abe & Eva Kaplan in memory of Eva’s Mother, Chana bat Batya Gittel (Elizabeth Birnbaum.)  May her Neshama have an aliyah on the occasion of her 16th  yahrzeit.

It is also sponsored in honor of the Bar Mitzvah of our dear grandson, Shlomo Tashman.  May he continue to grow and make us proud.
