Shirim Ush'kalim—The ACC Concert Society Initiative

To aid the ACC’s mission to provide adequate resources and support to its members, we are asking our membership to donate at least $360 of any concert proceeds to the ACC or by hosting in a "Campership concert" (see below) at your congregation. This “act of kindness” is truly without measure.

Since the Campership Initiative will be the ACC’s major source of revenue from concerts in the year ahead, when an ACC member participates in this drive and the donation to the ACC is at least $360.00, they will automatically become a member of the Shirim Ush'kalim Honor Society.

We need your commitment! Members of this “society” will be published in upcoming Chadashot, eKoleinu and the ACC Website.

Please contact Lisa Segal at Lsegal@tbam.org if you plan to participate in the Society so your name can be included in our running list of cantor participants. If you would like to host a Campership concert and would like some more information about the new ACC Concert Campership Initiative for 2012, please contact Cantor Jacqueline Rawiszer at cantorboo@gmail.com.
