30 Years of Inspiring Jewish Lives. 300 Envelopes to Build Our Future.

HaNefesh 2026 Envelope Challenge

30 years of teaching. 30 years of inspiring. 30 years of making Jewish life meaningful.

This year, we’re celebrating Jodi’s 30 years as a Jewish educator! From teaching and inspiring students of all ages to helping nurture our HaNefesh community for the past six and a half years, Jodi has dedicated her career to making Jewish learning accessible, engaging, and meaningful.

What better way to honor her than by investing in the Jewish community she has helped build?

HaNefesh brings Jewish experiences to life through Shabbat and holiday celebrations, educational programs, life cycle events, and opportunities to connect. Together, we continue to have a welcoming, inclusive Jewish community without walls, where everyone can find a place to belong, whether Jewish, part of the Jewish family, or Jewish curious.

Now, we’re challenging YOU to help us continue this sacred work!

Our Envelope Challenge is back! Choose an envelope (or two or three!) numbered from $1 to $300 and make a donation matching the number on your envelope. Every envelope makes a difference, and every gift matters. If we fill all 300 envelopes, together we will raise $45,150 to support HaNefesh!

We are especially grateful to Susan Sherman and Lenny Vinson, who are sponsoring this year’s Envelope Challenge in loving memory of Shirley Sherman, z”l. Throughout her life, Shirley was a devoted supporter of the Jewish community. She especially celebrated HaNefesh and Jew By You, encouraging Jewish growth, learning, and connection. We are honored to carry forward her legacy through this challenge.

As we celebrate Jodi’s 30 years of dedication to Jewish education, we also celebrate the power of a community that makes Jewish experiences accessible to all.

Every envelope is an opportunity to honor the past, celebrate the present, and invest in our Jewish future.
