Thank you to all of the amazing donors!
We are beyond grateful for the support we received during 401Gives Day! Our goal was to raise $5,000 towards the expansion of PJ Library Rhode Island, and thanks to nearly 60 donors, we raised more than $13,000!
Additional thanks to United Way of Rhode Island for hosting this special day of state-wide giving, the Rhode Island Foundation for their $500 Early Bird Match, and Centreville Bank for awarding us an additional $1,000 through their Banker’s Hours prize!
Your support will help deepen the connection children have to Jewish values and traditions, and they will grow up celebrating their heritage with every turn of the page… What an incredible way to start Shabbat!
