2018 Annual Report<\/h4>\n

December 11, 2018<\/p>\n

Dear Friends,<\/p>\n

It\u2019s time again for \u201call of us\u201d to look back on the memories and the accomplishments of the past 12 months. This has been a wonderful year for Kulanu! We have continued to build Jewish knowledge, leadership, and practice across the globe.<\/p>\n

As we welcome new partner congregations from around the world to the global Jewish community, we hope that you will contribute to supporting our ongoing work. We couldn\u2019t exist without you! Go to kulanu.org\/donate<\/a> to donate online or to find out how to mail a donation. If you have already donated, thank you! Here are some of the ways that donations were put to use in the past year:<\/div>\n

  • In\u00a0Zimbabwe<\/strong>, Kulanu continued to support operations and holiday celebrations at the Harare Lemba Synagogue (HLS), along with Passover seders at the Great Zimbabwe Synagogue in Mapakomhere and in three other rural villages. HLS members and their choir recorded melodies composed by Lemba musician Hamlet Zhou with help from Kulanu volunteer Cantor Mike Stein. HLS members and local village leaders built a second water storage dam and completed a soil conservation project with funds raised by Kulanu and launched a promising chicken business. Kulanu donors paid airfare for two young Lemba leaders to study in Israel for three months; tuition and living expenses were paid by Ohr Torah Stone yeshiva.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      \n
    • In\u00a0Uganda<\/strong>, we continued to support Hadassah Primary School, which feeds and educates 400+ Jewish, Christian, and Muslim children. We were able to increase funding for the school nutrition program and for teachers’ salaries. We also supported the school computer lab and extended the computer program to a school in the village of Namutumba. In addition, we funded a new kitchen, an incinerator, and a renovation of administration rooms. Students we supported in a national music, dance, and drama competition ranked 6th out of 57 schools.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
