ORDER A TREE OF LIFE LEAF, DOVE or ROCK


The Tree of Life has been a major CKI fundraiser since the 1960’s and is a special way to memorialize AND honor those in our congregation, while also raising needed funds for our synagogue.

In the past we have offered two choices, leaves or rocks, but we now have a NEW option, which is a DOVE!
​
The prices are as follows:
$125 for a LEAF
$500 for a DOVE
$1250 for a ROCK

​
You can honor a teacher or mentor, acknowledge the birth of a baby, celebrate a birthday, wedding, anniversary, bar/bat mitzvah, or give as a Hanukah gift.  Of course this is also the perfect way to memorialize the loved ones we have lost. To make this fundraiser even more affordable, consider “chipping in” with other congregants to purchase a leaf, dove or rock.

You can order online below, or print a form below, and mail it to the synagogue. Please allow 6 - 8 weeks for installation.

Thanks so much in advance for your support and allowing us to continue this meaningful tradition. Help us make a difference at CKI with your generous contribution to our Tree of Life.
