BD to offer stipend to families/individuals moving to Broome County

Saba Wiesner, Beth David Synagogue’s president, has announced what the Beth David Executive Board called “a unique opportunity” for a family or individual who is willing to relocate to Broome County and become a resident. Thanks to a generous donor, a family or individuals who move to the Binghamton area will receive a monthly subsidy of up to $500 per month per year. This $500 can be applied to a rent or mortgage payment. The subsidy will be provided for a maximum of three years. In return, the family or individual will be requested to become an active member of the Beth David Synagogue community. To be an active member, a male member, who is above bar mitzvah age, is asked to attend Shabbat services two or more times a month. Female members are asked to be involved in the Beth David Sisterhood.
“Our community,” Wiesner noted, “offers affordable housing, no traffic, beautiful parks, a Hebrew day school, a three-hour drive to New York City and a Beth David congregation that will embrace you and your family!”

Wiesner added, “Beth David Synagogue is a warm, friendly, modern Orthodox shul with active members. This is a  positive and exciting opportunity for both the shul and for the family or individuals who are willing to become a part of the Beth David family. We are excited to hear from interested people and to welcome them to our community.”
