For nearly 200 years, our CBAJ cemetery has stood as a sacred place and final resting place for generations of righteous souls. It stands not only as a physical space of eternal peace, but as a living testament to our shared history, values, and reverence for kavod ha’met (honoring the deceased).
With the passage of time, the needs of the cemetery grow – aging monuments require care, grounds must be maintained, and security must be ensured. Now, we turn to you to help preserve this historic legacy for the next 200 years and beyond.
We are pleased to announce the creation of The CBAJ Cemetery Endowment Fund
This fund will enable us to secure and sustain our cemetery’s operations in perpetuity
This launch includes a unique opportunity: Every dollar you give to the Cemetery Endowment Fund will be matched — dollar for dollar — thanks to the generosity of dedicated benefactors
The campaign is off to a great start - we have raised over $20,000 in gifts and pledges, which doublesto over $40,000 thanks to our generous matching donors.
If you have not already contributed, please consider supporting the campaign today - any donation you make will be similarly doubled.
Your support honors not only the memory of those who came before us, but also our collective responsibility to the future. Whether you have family buried here or simply value the preservation of our Jewish history, your gift matters deeply. With your help, we can preserve the dignity of those who came before us and fulfill the mitzvah of chesed shel emet (charity of truth)— the truest act of kindness, one that can never be repaid.
