Community Commitment
Enjoying Covenantal Relationships
The sacred community of Agudas Achim wouldn’t be what it is without each of our congregants. AAC is a sacred community built on covenantal relationships, with our covenant centered around what each of us gains from being a part of our synagogue community, as well as what each of us contributes to it—spiritually, financially, socially and intellectually.

Community Commitment Update
(updated 12/31/21)
Commitments to the community come in many forms, one of which is financial. Financial commitments go toward the general operations of Agudas Achim, enable us to offer a beautiful facility for services, learning and programs, and a staff that is dedicated to the health, well-being and growth of the community.
For Fiscal Year 2022, our goal is $1.222 million. Follow our growth here.
