While the stay at home directive has constrained our traditional socializing routines, the gift of technology has allowed us to remain joyfully connected. Torat Emet has introduced a WhatsApp group specifically dedicated to keeping us together during this historic time. Members of the Torat Emet family are posting the same kind of information that we enjoy sharing when we are physically together – general community updates, jokes, family news, inspirational messages…..
I hope that you will join our WhatsApp group. The family is not complete without you.
Torat Emet is excited to be part of the Life & Legacy Initiative sponsored by the Howard Grinspoon Foundation and Jewish Columbus. The objective is building endowments to help ensure our Jewish future for generations to come.

Community Announcements
Nate Geller, a longtime Jewish communal professional, is in need of a life-saving blood stem cell donation. In the midst of the pandemic, he was diagnosed with cancer, acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), and has since started treatment. Thankfully, he seems to be responding to the treatment, but the best way to cure his cancer is to receive a marrow donation.
If you are between the ages of 18-44, you are the perfect candidate to be a blood stem cell donor, and it is free to do. If you are between the ages of 45-60, you can also join the registry but you will be asked to make a $100 donation to cover the cost of the test.
All you need to do is click here, fill out the info form, and Be The Match will send you a swab to return to them in the mail. You can also text "Hesed" to 61474 to register. This link and code will allow the Geller Family to track (anonymously) how many people register and send in a swab in honor of Nate.
The Geller Family is hoping to expand the donor registry as much as possible.
Thank you!
