AMOS & CELIA HEILICHER MINNEAPOLIS JEWISH DAY SCHOOL

Spring 2022 Annual Benefit

Thank you so much to all of our guests who joined us for the Spring 2022 Annual Benefit on Thursday, May 19. It was an incredible event, full of warmth for our school and admiration for our amazing honorees: Jill and Jon Halper and Stacy Pinck and Brad Birnberg. Despite the ongoing pressures of COVID, we were thrilled to be able to get together in-person for this celebration, and we look forward to many more opportunities to be together. 

We are excited to announce that we raised $450,000 - our highest achievement ever! This included $400,000 of corporate and community sponsorships, as well as tribute gifts and generous fund-a-need donations to support financial assistance for Heilicher students. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for the tremendous support of our community. A link to our full list of sponsors is included here. 

Please enjoy the short video presentation we showed at the Benefit along with some photos from the night. 

If you were unable to attend,  please consider donating to our fund-a-need to support need-based financial assistance. You can help make it possible for any child to attend Heilicher, no matter what their family’s financial situation is. Heilicher gives out over $1 million annually in scholarships, but we know it is still not enough to meet the demonstrated need. Your donation to fund-a-need will make it possible for another child to have the incredible opportunity of a Heilicher education.

Please donate online here (select Annual Benefit as the type of gift), or email Beckie Skelton, Institutional Advancement Director, with your pledged commitment and we will invoice you. 

Thank you again for making our Heilicher community so special, and for joining with us to celebrate our school and our honorees!
