Participate in the Sisterhoods Say YES campaign by contributing a Lifeline as a sisterhood. Over ninety sisterhoods already have said YES and many others are in the process of completing a Lifeline; several sisterhoods have even pledged a Gold Lifeline. We hope that your sisterhood will join them!

 

Participation in the Sisterhoods Say YES Lifeline Campaign enables your sisterhood president to receive and wear your sisterhood's Lifeline pin during her presidency. The pin is then passed down from president to president. Have your sisterhood consider building a ritual into the innstallation service of your president, passing down the Lifeline pin along with her WRJ sisterhood president's pin.

 

Lifeline donations are endowed gifts; the principal remains in perpetuity, and the interest earned is used to support YES Fund programs.

As part of the Sisterhoods Say YES Lifeline Campaign, sisterhoods are encouraged to promote the YES Fund (Youth, Education, and Special Projects) to your members: 

• Encourage your congregants and sisterhood members to send Uniongrams to someone special for WRJ’s YES Fund Awareness Day (January 21).
• Consider using the history of the Uniongram as an article in your January or February sisterhood or temple bulletin.
• Share a list of the distributions made from the YES Fund during the last fiscal year with your members.
• Present the following activities at sisterhood board meetings or programs:
• “Because You Said YES!” highlights YES Fund cards, as well as the important projects and people the YES Fund supports.
• “The Last Rabbi” is a short skit demonstrating what could happen if the YES Fund ceased to exist.

We urge your sisterhood to say "YES!" and support the YES Fund of tomorrow!
