Synagogues
Here's Your Chance
Giving Tzedakah
The primary tzedakah obligation
of one whose parents are unable
to support themselves is to main-
tain their parents' standard of liv-
ing.

We want to feature a photograph each
week to accompany this Synagogue
List. Your congregations are busy
doing special things all the time. This
is a great place to showcase them.
We're looking for candid photographs
featuring action - nothing posed.
Please submit photos to us for consid-
eration. We will share the wealth and
rotate among the congregations.
We prefer digital images sent by
e-mail. High resolution. High quality.
Timely. Not too many people. Full iden-
tification - name and city as well as
the ages of children. With your photos,
send information about the event -
what, who, when, where and why.
Include a contact and daytime phone
number.
Send it all to Sy Manello at
smanello@thejewishnews.com or call
(248) 351-5147. That's all there is to it!
