HOW IT WORKS:
Every penny you donate is QUADRUPLED! For every dollar you give, Chabad of Springfield will get four dollars. Every dollar will be matched by our three generous benefactors, to help us reach our goal of $50,000.
Remember: The campaign is ALL OR NOTHING – we must raise the full amount within 24 hours, or all donations will be returned.
Your support will allow us to ENSURE that we can reach every Jew - One Jew at a Time.
