MISSION
This year, we turn the attention of our annual fundraiser to our milestone birthday, 110 years of Congregation B'nai Emunah! This important annual event is one critical way we sustain the daily life of The Synagogue. Support generated directly fuels our operating budget, making possible the programs, relationships, care, and sacred moments that define us.
We gather to honor 110 years of generational impact while we invest in what comes next. Tulsa is stronger because of its Jewish community. And Congregation B'nai Emunah stands at the heart of that life. This fundraiser ensures that our heart continues to beat, grow, and serve for generations to come.
HONORING SHELLI WRIGHT
Additionally, we are honored to celebrate Shelli Wright, whose 21 years of leadership of the B'nai Emunah Preschool have shaped generations of children and families at Congregation B’nai Emunah. Shelli created more than a preschool—she has built a place of warmth, trust, and growth, where children take their first steps, and families find connection and belonging. Help us honor her career and offer her blessings on her retirement!
CELEBRATING LAY LEADERSHIP
Our annual fundraiser also serves as our congregation's annual meeting, where we celebrate those who serve our community as lay leaders. The slate of nominees for election to a two-year term on our Board of Directors is: Jennifer Airey, Gene Bulmash, Micah Cash, Evan Charney, Randee Charney, Boris Dralyuk, Jodi Finer, Alex Gavern, Andrea Schwartz, and Karen Tilkin.
