Annual Membership Commitment
-
Full Membership - Membership to CBI helps sustain our Jewish community. Our new fiscal year begins July 1st. Please contact our Executive Director, Chime Costello, to discuss your membership commitment.
-
Associate Membership - This membership is for households who wish to support CBI while being a full member at another Temple.
-
Gift a Membership! We invite you to welcome a relative, friend, or neighbor to experience membership at CBI through The Gift Membership Program. There is no cost to you or the Gift Member family. If you are current in your financial commitments, you can gift a one-time annual membership to someone in the community who is seeking a Jewish home, as long as they are not also affiliated with another congregation in the area. Gifting is a way for us to introduce new prospective members to our community. To gift a membership, please contact our office.
