SUMMER LEARNING PROGRAM
Dear Friends,
Our Annual Summer Learning Program is enabled only
through the generosity of our sponsors. It is to their credit
that the voice of Torah is strengthened each summer in our
community.
Please contact Mark Twersky at the GNS office: to join this
noble effort: 516.487.6100 or mtwersky@gns.org.
A general sponsorship is $100 and a “Day of Learning”
sponsorship in honor or in memory of a loved one is $180.
We will recognize and honor all of our sponsors in a special
Shabbat Announcements listing as well as at the program
itself.
Thank you for supporting our community’s Torah study.
