DUES VS COST

In 2007-08, the cost of operations was approximately $3,300 per household.

Membership dues covered only about 55% of those expenses. The balance came from contributions, the Chai Five Fund, special events and religious school fees.

We aspire to be a fair, open and inclusive community. In that spirit, we have opted for a sliding-scale dues structure keyed to members' income. (Discounts are available for students, young adults and people living outside the tri-state area.)

The schedule is not discretionary, and we expect each person -- as a member of our kehillah kedoshah, or holy community -- to be conscientious in assessing the appropriate dues level. We urge those who cannot afford the cost of membership to request special consideration for financial hardship. We are dedicated to working out a comfortable arrangement so that no one will be excluded for financial reasons.

To find your dues level, use your annual household gross (pre-tax) income for the 2006 calendar year, as it appears on your income tax return. Two-adult households should use the combined household income of both adults.

If you have children under the age of 18, they will be included in your membership, and will receive High Holiday seats along with you. Additional seats for family or friends may be purchased.

For information on our religious school program and fees, see the learning page.
