COVID-19 UPATE:
We have temporarily closed the Kol Yisrael building to the public and our congregation to protect our members from the COVID 19 virus. We are working on line with programming using Zoom and other internet connection sources. We have a Friday night service on Zoom prior to Shabbat with Rabbi Jacob. Please check our Facebook page for links, if not available on our website. We are learning quickly how to improve our communication. For questions contact our Temple office at 562-5604 or Rabbi Jacob at 610-656-7345. Stay Safe.

Food Bank of the Hudson Valley Project
With many people out of work and schools closed, many people in our community are suffering from a shortage of food due to the spread of COVID-19. Congregation Agudas Israel would like to help families in this crisis by donating to the Food Bank of the Hudson Valley. For every dollar donated the Food Bank can provide 4 meals to people in need. So an $18.00 donation can provide 72 meals!
We will be collecting donations until May 15, 2020. If you would like to help support our community, please send your donation to:
290 North Street
Newburgh, NY 12550
Checks should be made out to Congregation Agudas Israel. Note in the memo that this is a donation to the Food Bank.
All the donations received by May 15 will be collected and sent to the Food Bank of the Hudson Valley as a donation from Congregation Agudas Israel. Note that so far we have raised over $1000 for this mitzvah!
