Membership is a relationship - a loving commitment with the Jewish people and a statement of mutual support. Membership fees and contributions provide the financial foundation for all that Temple Sinai stands for and strives for. About 50% of our operating budget is funded by membership dues. Dues amounts are proposed by the Board and voted on by the congregation.

Payments may be made:
• annually (single payment)
• semi-annually
• quarterly
• monthly (10 payments July-April)

Members are required to contribute $1800 toward the Building Fund. This fee is payable in installments over the first six years of membership ($300/year) or it can be paid in full. If you contributed towards the Building Fund at another synagogue, kindly furnish proof in the form of a letter from the synagogue, and we will waive the requirement.

Early Childhood Center, Religious School and Teen Programs require a separate application and payment.

Your membership contribution is TAX DEDUCTIBLE and NON-REFUNDABLE.

We are driven by the principle that anyone who wants to be part of our community can join, regardless of personal financial circumstances. Membership should be accessible and irresistible. If you cannot afford to pay the full dues amount, we will meet you at a level you can afford. The Dues Consideration process is simple and confidential; you only need to submit the paperwork once a year.
Our membership tiers provide you with a more personalized experience within our vibrant Jewish community, dedicated to social action, Torah learning, and meaningful relationships. Your continued commitment to Temple Sinai of Roslyn opens doors for you and your family to enjoy exciting events as part of a warm, inspiring, and welcoming community.

The actual cost of maintaining Temple Sinai's operations is approximately $6,000 per household. Committing at the LEV Champion tier enables us to cover the cost of your membership and ensures TSR's future.
