Dear Members of the Congregation Beth Emeth Community:

Congregation Beth Emeth is once again participating in Do More 24, Delaware’s Day of Giving. From 6:00 PM on March 6 to 6:00 PM on March 7, we will have the opportunity to make online contributions to support the "Greening" of Beth Emeth.
 
This is our opportunity to `put our energy (and our energy bills) in the right place by supporting the "Greening" of Beth Emeth.
 
Thanks to an energy audit conducted by Delaware Interfaith Power & Light (DeIPL), we've identified key projects that will shrink our carbon footprint, lower our energy bills and keep Beth Emeth shining bright for generations to come.
 
We need your help to fund:
 
  • Switching our traditional lighting (inside and out) to LED bulbs and fixtures
 
  • Installing an LED-compatible panel to power our future energy-efficient upgrades
 
The total cost? $25,000. But with your help, we’re looking to raise $10,000 during Do More 24 to get us well on our way.
 
Why Donate During This 24-Hour Blitz?  Because your generosity can grow exponentially! Do More 24 offers matching gifts and prizes throughout the campaign, meaning your donation could double, triple or even help us win additional funding. 
 
Although giving doesn’t begin until March 6 at 6:00 PM, you can set a reminder now to donate on March 6, here:  https://www.domore24delaware.org/fundraisers/congregation-beth-emeth

Keep an eye out for updates—we’ll let you know the best times to give so your donation stretches even further!
 
Let’s make Beth Emeth brighter, greener, and more financially stable.
 
Thank you for your support!

With gratitude,

 Rachel Allen                                  Yair Robinson
