FAQ - FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

1.  What do I have to do to fill-in a letter? 
Submit a completed Dedication Request Form and a Pledge Commitment Form to the office. As soon as the office receives them, the information is sent to the committee. You will be contacted to schedule an appointment to fill in your letter.

2.  Who do I contact with questions about the Dedication Opportunities? 
Julia Pitkin-Shantz - 703.505.7731 or via email

3.  Who can help me figure out what I should dedicate? 
Randy Stein or Jack Berman

4.  What other activities are planned? 
Each group in the life of Agudas Achim is encouraged to participate by incorporating letter fill in opportunities with a program with our scribe, Rabbi Menachem Youlus. After you submit your forms, you can choose when to schedule your fill in opportunity.

5. Will I fill in the letter or a letter in the portion I dedicate? 
It is unlikely you will fill in a letter from the portion you dedicate. Only the first and last panels of the Torah contain letters in outline form, the remainder have already been completed by a scribe in Israel. The first panel will be used for all fill-in events preceding the Siyyum (final dedication) and the last panel will be used during the Siyyum.
