Purim Gift Bags!
| IT’S TIME TO ORDER YOUR PURIM GIFT BAGS! |
SEND A BEAUTIFUL GIFT BAG TO YOUR TEMPLE FAMILY
Did you know the mitzvah of giving mishloach manot (Purim gift bags) is a tradition intended to increase love and friendship among Jews and their neighbors?
Each Purim gift bag costs $5.00 and contains homemade Hamantaschen and Israeli candy. Families will receive one gift bag, hand delivered, with the names of those who sponsored the gift in their package. Better yet, for $180.00 consider sending a Purim gift bag to the entire temple congregation.
BEST WAY TO ORDER
Click on the link below to get the order form, and submit it to the temple office with a check. Ordering this way will help avoid the 2% fee we incur with Happy Purim.
If ordering online with Happy Purim is more convenient, that is fine too. We need your support no matter which method you choose.
This is a fundraiser and we need your help for it to be successful.

You will receive a personalized code via e-mail. Alternatively, you may call the temple office for your code.
Choose the names of the temple members to whom you would like to send a gift bag. Pay by credit card. Your e-mail address/personal information will not be shared with any other entity.
