January 2022 Fund in Focus: The Aptekar Family Endowment Fund for Film

Thanks to the Aptekar Fund, even a global pandemic cannot stop our community from enjoying films together! This fund has supported streamed films and discussions viewed from home and will support in-person film experiences again soon.

Judy and Bob Aptekar, the founders of the fund, were inspired by their participation in the Shabbat afternoon film series. “Movies have a way of bringing people together for a shared interest and entertainment, but can also generate meaningful conversations. And whether it’s Jewish films or just films that bring Jews together, it’s good for our community!”

Funds like this keep our Beth Am programs going, so we encourage you to consider donating  to the fund of your choice on your next special occasion.
If you would like information about how to create your own named fund, please visit www.betham.org/GIVE or contact Director of Development Mandy Eisner at meisner@betham.org, (650) 493-4661.
