Dr. Leon Spotts Educational Fund
Dear Beth Shalom family,
Since this weekend's activities are designed to honor Dr. Spotts, I am encouraging our members to make a contribution in Dr. Spotts honor to the newly established "Dr. Leon Spotts Educational Fund."
A few weeks ago, the Board of Directors approved the establishment of a fund that would allow for the extension of Dr. Spotts commitment to Jewish Education. The Board of Education quickly endorsed this thought and are eager to establish a base of working funds where we can recognize and honor our young students and the dedicated staff that makes it all possible.
Knowing the thoughts of Dr. Spotts as I do, I am sure he will be most thankful to know the Education Fund is supporting our youth in their development and love for a Jewish life.
Thank you for your support and generosity!
Daryl Giddings
Chairperson, Board of Education
