The Shaarie Torah Men’s Club will present the Harry R. Nemer Award to Shelly Klapper at the annual Service Award dinner. Since joining Shaarie Torah Shelly has devoted countless hours of involvement in numerous fundraising projects benefiting all of us at Shaarie Torah. Without his “behind the scenes” volunteer work, two remodel projects may not have come to fruition. He currently serves on the Congregation Shaarie Torah Fundraising Committee.
The Men’s Club encourages you to mark your calendars for June 26, 2016 and plan to attend this yearly event. For information regarding tickets or becoming a sponsor of the Harry R. Nemer Service Award Dinner please contact the synagogue office at 503-226-6131, or visit: shaarietorah.org/nemerdinner2016
The Waterfront Blues Festival (July 1-4 at Portland’s Tom McCall Park) was founded by a Jewish boy from Buffalo, NY, who learned firsthand how much a mitzvah can mean to a hungry person after he was robbed when he arrived in New York City to pursue a music career. Delmark Goldfarb produced the first five festivals, which have benefitted the Oregon Food Bank since the second year. It was Del’s idea to create a family-friendly music event in a Portland park in 1987. Last year the 28th annual festival raised $869,214, providing about 2.6 million meals for Oregonians facing hunger.
Oregon Food Bank’s Waterfront Blues Festival celebrates the Fourth of July each year with a spectacular display of fireworks … the largest July 4 fireworks display in Oregon.
