Sending a tribute card is a wonderful way to let someone know that you are thinking about them, offer a hearty Mazel Tov, mark a milestone or offer condolences. “Tributes” sent out by the temple on your behalf, are a loving way to support important programming at TSTI. (Please see list of funds below.)

The minimum donation is $18 for the temple office to process, stamp and mail out a Tribute card. There is a Senior Discount minimum donation of $10 per tribute (age 65+).
