Schechter Spark is a celebration honoring the legacy of Rabbi Joshua and Goldie Stampfer, z”l.
The event will consist of a brunch and fundraiser for Camp Solomon Schechter on May 3 from 10:30 am to 12:30 pm at Congregation Neveh Shalom at 2900 SW Peaceful Lane in Portland.
Camp Solomon Schechter has a 65-year tradition of fun, friendship and Jewish education in the Pacific Northwest.
The money raised will go to funding transformative, Jewish experiences; providing financial assistance to families who can’t afford camp (and can’t afford to miss camp); updating safety and security measures; hiring Jewish role models, who make it possible for more children of all needs to experience CSS and teaching the future generation to be proud of their Jewish heritage and culture.
The Migdal Or Award will also be given out during the event. The award honors Rabbi Joshua and Goldie Stampfer’s, z”l, legacy and commitment to Jewish continuity and camping.
A Migdal Or is a beacon of light. The award is given out to remarkable individuals that keep the spark of the Stampfer’s legacy alive and light the way for others to follow.
