Yizkor Book (Book of Remembrance)
Romemu’s annual Yizkor Book — Book of Remembrance – is a traditional way to honor the names of loved ones passed and make a charitable donation to Romemu at the same time. The printed book will be distributed on Yom Kippur to those attending onsite and a digital version will be shared with all those attending online. Please fill out this form to have the names of your loved ones listed in this year’s Book of Remembrance for our Yom Kippur Yizkor service.
Names must be submitted by September 30 for inclusion in the book.
This year, to help you honor the memories of those you cherish, you may include as many names as you wish for a single donation. In addition, gifts of $1,000 or more will place your loved ones in our Perpetual Memorial which will ensure the names of your loved ones will be maintained in our Book for years to come.
While donations are greatly appreciated, no names will be turned away for lack of contribution.
Give to Romemu High Holy Days Fund
HELP KEEP ROMEMU HIGH HOLY DAY SERVICES ACCESSIBLE TO ALL
Discretionary giving (e.g. giving above membership dues) supports over 50% of everything we do. Every song, every prayer, every word of wisdom, every heart connection made at Romemu happens because of a charitable gift from someone like you.
Please consider a tax-deductible contribution in any amount. No gift is too small or large. Your Tzedakah (righteous giving) and Hesed (loving-kindness) will help ensure that every spiritual seeker is able to join Romemu for the High Holy Days and other services and programs all year long.
