A f f i l i a t e s WOMEN OF REFORM JUDAISM BARBARA GRUBER SCHOLARSHIP FUND


Kol Ami’sWomen of ReformJudaism(Sisterhood) is involved inmany facets of the Temple’s life. We are proud that for many years, we have been able to recognize our graduating high school seniors in June when we award schol- arships. To be eligible, students must have become Bat/Bar Mitzvah, been Confirmed, continued their Jewish education through 12th grade in our Religious School, and performed community service. Our financial support of these students is made possible through donations to our Barbara Gruber Scholarship Fund.We invite you to contribute to this worthy cause.


The Barbara Gruber Scholarship Fund is named in lovingmemory of Barbara Gruber who was an active member and leader of our congregation. Among her many contributions to our community, she was a President of our Sisterhood, co-chair of many of our Holiday Boutiques, and the manager of the Judaica Shop. Barbara was married to Matt Gruber, the Executive Director of our synagogue for many years, and a resident of White Plains where they raised their three children.


In 2011, theWomen of ReformJudaismawarded nine such scholarships. In


order for us to continue this valuable program, the Barbara Gruber Scholarship Fund requires replenishment through contributions. Donations in any amount are welcome and can bemade to honor an individual, to com- memorate a meaningful experience, or “just because”. Acknowledgement will appear in The Connection.
