YES Fund Lifeline Gifts & Honor Roll

Those who contribute to the WRJ YES Fund Lifeline Fund, the annual interest of which directly supports the YES Fund, are helping to ensure it endures l’dor vador (from generation to generation).

A WRJ Story

When my mom approached me a couple of years ago to gift me with the ability to bring my Gold YES Lifeline to Diamond, it was her acknowledgment of my involvement in WRJ. She understood the importance of continuing the work in Reform Judaism and issues that directly affect women’s reproductive rights and equal pay.

WRJ Lifelines

WRJ recognizes the pressing current needs of our global Reform/Progressive Jewish community but is also aware of the need to plan for the future needs of our Jewish community. Those who contribute to the WRJ YES Fund Lifeline Fund, the annual interest of which directly supports the YES Fund, are helping to ensure it endures l’dor vador (from generation to generation).

YES Fund Lifeline gifts are also a meaningful way to recognize someone who has touched your life or to honor a confirmation, graduation, an ordination, or as a memorial.

Upon completion of a YES Fund Lifeline level (listed below), you will receive a handmade sterling silver or 14K gold pin with the appropriate gemstones corresponding and signifying your generous contribution.

Lifeline Levels

  • Centennial: $100,000
  • Emerald: $36,000
  • Diamond: $18,000
  • Pearl: $10,000
  • Gold: $5,000
  • Silver: $1,800
